Syntax
>>>> ITERATION: max_iter
Parent Command
>>> ANNEAL
Subcommand
-
Description
This command limits the maximum number of iterations performed by the Simulated Annealing minimization algorithm. An iteration is completed if:
(1) the maximum number of steps mstep on a temperature level is reached (see command >>>> STEP (a)), or
(2) the objective function has been reduced 0.2*mstep times
Each iteration is followed by a reduction of the control parameter tau (temperature) according to the annealing schedule (see command >>>> SCHEDULE).
