État de l’art des méthodes d’«optimisation globale»
We present a review of the main “global optimization” methods. The paper comprises one introduction and two parts. In the introduction, we recall some generalities about non linear constraint-less optimization and we list some classifications which have been proposed for the global optimization methods. We then describe, in the first part, various “classical” global optimization methods, most of which available long before the appearance of Simulated Annealing (a key event in this field). There...
