  • Abstract
    The contribution describes an original method exploiting a combinatorial computation, which ca be used for the simplification of an internal structure of a system while preserving its external behavior. The simplification of the impedance network (IN) is formulated as a combinatorial problem. A stochastic optimization approach is used to tackle the NP-completeness of the simplification task. Genetic algorithms and simulated annealing techniques are reducing the system complexity. Complexity reductions are statistically evaluated and compared.
