Preface

Computational optimization is an active and important area of study, practice, and research today. It covers a wide range of applications in engineering, science, and industry. It provides solutions to a variety of real-life problems in disciplines such as health, business, government, military, politics, security, education, and many more. Various problems can be transformed into optimization problems and then can be solved simply, accurately, and efficiently. This field is a source of revolutionizing, facilitating and enhancing the exchange of knowledge among researchers involved in both the theoretical and practical aspects. It emphasizes various topics including large-scale optimization, unconstrained optimization, constrained optimization, nondifferentiable optimization, combinatorial optimization, stochastic optimization, multi-objective optimization, linear programming, quadratic programming, parametric programming, complexity theory, automatic differentiation, approximations, error analysis, sensitivity analysis, theoretical analysis, evolutionary computing, surrogate-based methods, simulated likelihood estimation, support vector machines, and others. This comprehensive reference explores the developments, methods, approaches, and surveys of computational optimization in a wide variety of fields and endeavors. It focuses on optimization techniques, algorithms,

This book compiles original and innovative findings on all aspects of computational optimization. It presents various examples of optimization including cost, energy, profits, outputs, performance, and efficiency. It also discusses different types of optimization problems like nonlinearity, multimodality, discontinuity, and uncertainty. The book also addresses various real-life applications of computational optimization in the fields of science, engineering, industry, health, business, government, military, information technology, and others. The book provides researchers, practitioners, academicians, military professionals, government officials, and other industry professionals with an in-depth discussion of the latest advances in

analysis, applications, fields, nature of problems, and more.

reliable manner.

Kamiński starts the book with the first chapter on "Optimization Directions for Monitoring of Ground Freezing Process for Grzegorz Shaft Sinking." It discusses the sinking of the Grzegorz mineshaft in the Silesian Coal Basin in the United States, which is the first mineshaft sunk in the 21st century using a ground freezing method. Work carried out by the Shaft Sinking Company (PBSz S.A.) is characterized by a high level of innovativeness. Geophysical measurements were conducted to optimize the ground freezing process and its monitoring. Data gathered during research was used as a starting point for optimizing particular fields during the Grzegorz shaft sinking, as well as for use in future similar ventures. Proposed solutions might bring real improvements for the safety and effectiveness of the work as well as for economic factors. Conducted tests and analysis aimed at improving the monitoring of shape, size, and quality of the frozen rock mass column in a safe and
