《全局優(yōu)化》雜志發(fā)表了經(jīng)過(guò)仔細(xì)參考的論文，涵蓋了全局優(yōu)化的理論、計(jì)算和應(yīng)用方面。該期刊的重點(diǎn)放在尋找非凸多極值問(wèn)題的全局最優(yōu)的原始研究貢獻(xiàn)上，其范圍涵蓋了最廣泛的優(yōu)化，包括非線性、混合整數(shù)、組合、隨機(jī)、魯棒、多目標(biāo)優(yōu)化、計(jì)算幾何和平衡問(wèn)題。關(guān)于數(shù)據(jù)驅(qū)動(dòng)方法和基于優(yōu)化的數(shù)據(jù)挖掘的相關(guān)工作具有特殊的意義。除了涵蓋全球優(yōu)化理論和算法的論文外，該雜志還發(fā)表了大量關(guān)于數(shù)值實(shí)驗(yàn)、新試驗(yàn)臺(tái)以及在工程、管理和科學(xué)領(lǐng)域的應(yīng)用的論文。特別感興趣的應(yīng)用包括醫(yī)療保健、計(jì)算生物化學(xué)、能源系統(tǒng)、電信和金融。除了長(zhǎng)篇文章，該雜志的特點(diǎn)是在開(kāi)放和解決全球優(yōu)化問(wèn)題的簡(jiǎn)短溝通。它還提供有關(guān)書籍的評(píng)論和出版特刊。

The Journal of Global Optimization publishes carefully refereed papers that encompass theoretical, computational, and applied aspects of global optimization. While the focus is on original research contributions dealing with the search for global optima of non-convex, multi-extremal problems, the journal’s scope covers optimization in the widest sense, including nonlinear, mixed integer, combinatorial, stochastic, robust, multi-objective optimization, computational geometry, and equilibrium problems. Relevant works on data-driven methods and optimization-based data mining are of special interest.In addition to papers covering theory and algorithms of global optimization, the journal publishes significant papers on numerical experiments, new testbeds, and applications in engineering, management, and the sciences. Applications of particular interest include healthcare, computational biochemistry, energy systems, telecommunications, and finance. Apart from full-length articles, the journal features short communications on both open and solved global optimization problems. It also offers reviews of relevant books and publishes special issues.
