Convergence of the restricted Nelder-Mead algorithm in two dimensions
The Nelder-Mead algorithm, a longstanding direct search method for unconstrained optimization published in 1965, is designed to minimize a scalar-valued function $f$ of $n$ real variables using only function values, without any derivative information. Each Nelder–Mead iteration is associated with a nondegenerate simplex defined by $n + 1$ vertices and their function values; a typical … Read more
