A Review of Stochastic Optimization Algorithms Applied in Food Engineering
Mathematical models that represent food processing operations are characterized by the nonlinearity of their dynamic behavior with possible discrete events, the existence of several variables of interest that are usually distributed in space, and the presence of nonlinear constraints. These features...

| description | Mathematical models that represent food processing operations are characterized by the nonlinearity of their dynamic behavior with possible discrete events, the existence of several variables of interest that are usually distributed in space, and the presence of nonlinear constraints. These features require robust optimization methods to resolve these models and to identify the optimum operating conditions of the processes. Stochastic optimization methods, often referred as metaheuristics, are effective and reliable tools to perform the global and multiobjective optimization of process units and operations involved in food engineering. In this way, this paper surveys recent advances and contributions that have applied stochastic methods for solving global and multiobjective optimization problems in food engineering. The description of the most used stochastic algorithms in food engineering is provided including the application of those methods classified as random search techniques, evolutionary methods, and swarm intelligence methods. It was observed that evolutionary methods are the most applied in solving food engineering optimization problems where the genetic algorithm and differential evolution stand out. Finally, remarks on the limitations and current challenges to improving the numerical performance of stochastic optimization methods for food engineering applications are also discussed. |
