3 Belge Optimizasyon

   The basic principles of multilevel optimization were enounced in my Ph.D. thesis (Goertzel,1989). There I gave experimental and theoretical results regarding the performance of a numberof specific algorithms operating according to the multilevel philosophy. Shortly after completing this research, however, I was surprised to find that the basic idea of the multilevel philosophy had…

The Monte Carlo philosophy says: If you want to find out what’s best, try out a lot of differentthings at random and see which one of these is best. If you try enough different things, the best you find will be almost certainly be a decent guess at the best overall. This is a commonapproach…

But, unlikeMinsky and many cognitive scientists, I do not believe this to be the case. Certainly, the mindcontains a huge number of special-purpose procedures. But nearly all the…
