Global optimization of statistical functions with simulated annealing.

Many statistical methods rely on numerical optimization to estimate a model's parameters. Unfortunately, conventional algorithms sometimes fail. Even when they do converge, there is no assurance that they have found the global, rather than a local, optimum. We test a new optimization algorithm, s...
