Analysis of optimization methods in marine objects control synthesis

The article presents four main chapters that allow you to formulate an optimization task and choose a method for solving it from static and dynamic optimization methods to single-criterion and multi-criteria optimization. In the group of static optimization methods, the methods are without constraints and with constraints, gradient and non-gradient and heuristic. Dynamic optimization methods are divided into basic - direct and indirect and special. Particular attention has been paid to multi-criteria optimization in single-object approach as static and dynamic optimization, and multi-object optimization in game control scenarios. The article shows not only the classic optimization methods that were developed many years ago, but also the latest in the field, including, but not limited to, particle swarms.
