Simulated Stochastic Approximation Annealing for Global Optimization With a Square-Root Cooling Schedule

Simulated annealing has been widely used in the solution of optimization problems. As known by many researchers, the global optima cannot be guaranteed to be located by simulated annealing unless a logarithmic cooling schedule is used. However, the logarithmic cooling schedule is so slow that no one...
