ABSTRACT:
An adaptive weighting method for layout optimization differentiates different priorities by assigning the weight of a higher priority (pi) to be multiple of the weight of a lower priority (pi−1) where W(pi)=mi% W(pi−1. To avoid numerical imprecision, this method keeps the total cost in the objective function within a trustable range by scaling the initial weights in the objectives, while maintaining relativity, to produce the scaled weights.
