Worst case complexity of direct search
In this paper, we prove that the broad class of direct-search methods of directional type based on imposing sufficient decrease to accept new iterates shares the worst case complexity bound of steepest descent for the unconstrained minimization of a ...

Retraction-Based Direct Search Methods for Derivative Free Riemannian Optimization
AbstractDirect search methods represent a robust and reliable class of algorithms for solving black-box optimization problems. In this paper, the application of those strategies is exported to Riemannian optimization, wherein minimization is to be performed with respect to variables restricted to lie on a manifold.

Direct Search Methods on Reductive Homogeneous Spaces [PDF]
Direct search methods are mainly designed for use in problems with no equality constraints. However, there are many instances where the feasible set is of measure zero in the ambient space and no mesh point lies within it. There are methods for working with feasible sets that are (Riemannian) manifolds, but not all manifolds are created equal.

Predictive Control of Ancillary Services Using Direct Search Methods [PDF]
Abstract The paper is focused on usage of direct search methods of an optimum in the area of predictive control. The aim of the process is to find an optimal coverage of a given predicted course of output variable by means of a set of sources. Proposed approach can be used in multi source tasks where overall output is given as the sum of outputs of ...

Directed search methods for surface structure determination by LEED [PDF]
Conventional surface crystallography by low-energy electron diffraction employs a trial-and-error search controlled at each step by a human being. This trial-and-error approach becomes very cumbersome and unreliable when it is applied to complex surfaces with a large number of unknown structural parameters.

Memory-Based Evolutionary Algorithms for Nonlinear and Stochastic Programming Problems
In this paper, we target the problems of finding a global minimum of nonlinear and stochastic programming problems. To solve this type of problem, we propose new approaches based on combining direct search methods with Evolution Strategies (ESs) and ...
