Özet

In many global optimization techniques, the local search methods are used for different issues such as to obtain a new initial point and to find the local solution rapidly. Most of these local search methods base on the smoothness of the problem. In this study, we propose a new smoothing approach in order to smooth out non-smooth and non-Lipschitz functions playing a very important role in global optimization problems. We illustrate our smoothing approach on well-known test problems in the literature. The numerical results show the efficiency of our method.
