SEARCH FOR GLOBAL MAXIMA IN MULTIMODAL FUNCTIONS BY APPLYING NUMERICAL OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHMS: A COMPARISON BETWEEN GOLDEN SECTION AND SIMULATED ANNEALING

Search for Global Maxima in Multimodal Functions by Applying Numerical Optimization Algorithms: A Comparison between Golden Section and Simulated Annealing

In the field of engineering when a situation is not resolved analytically, efforts are made to develop methods that approximate a possible solution.These efforts have originated the numerical methods known at present, which allow formulating mathematical problems that can be solved using logical and arithmetic operations.This paper presents a compa
