Very fast simulated re-annealing
TL;DR: An algorithm is developed to statistically find the best global fit of a nonlinear nonconvex cost-function over a D-dimensional space and it is argued that this algorithm permits an annealing schedule for ''temperature'' T decreasing exponentially in annealed-time k, T = T"0exp(-ck^1^/^D).
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulated annealing: Practice versus theory
TL;DR: Using the author's Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA) code, some examples are given which demonstrate how SQ can be much faster than SA without sacrificing accuracy.

Simulated annealing: Practice versus theory
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA) code to demonstrate how simulated quenching (SQ) can be much faster than SA without sacrificing accuracy.

Adaptive simulated annealing (ASA): Lessons learned
TL;DR: Adaptive simulated annealing (ASA) as mentioned in this paper is a global optimization algorithm based on an associated proof that the parameter space can be sampled much more ef ficiently than by using other previous SA algorithms.

Genetic Algorithms and Very Fast Simulated Reannealing: A comparison
Lester Ingber,B. Rosen +1 more
TL;DR: This work compares Genetic Algorithms with a functional search method, Very Fast Simulated Reannealing (VFSR), that not only is efficient in its search strategy, but also is statistically guaranteed to find the function optima.
