Abstract:
In this paper we propose a new deterministic evolutionary algorithm for global optimization of Morse clusters. The algorithm has been proven to possess the polynomial efficiency due to the problem-specific heuristics applied. We illustrate the effectiveness of the approach by a set of test problems in structural Morse cluster optimization.
Keywords:Morse clusters, Morse potential, cluster structures, global optimization, population of cluster conformations.
