That's kind of a hard thing to measure against, can you tell me of an example in real life where you know something is the global optimum?

- ben_w 5y agoThat’s basically why it does local optima rather than global. As for an example where you know the global optima: real life hill climbing rather than the blindfolded version used to explain the algorithm of the same name?
- Fomite 5y agoYou don't need to know something is a global optimum - you just need to know there's a slightly better at-least-local optimum with a decrease in fitness between that and where one is now.
