Talk:Global optimization

Isn't protein structure prediction an example of local, rather than global optimisation?

Cultivation

Reply -- yeah, if the subject proteins are tightly controlled and exhibit the same or similar composition.

definition

The introductory sentences describe optimization in general. The distinction between global and local comes further down. Maybe one sentence should be put in the introduction about what makes an optimizer a truly global optimizer. Georg Stillfried (talk) 20:56, 24 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

EDIT - QUESTION

The article doesn't explain in any sort of layman terms what global optimization is. I suggest adding tangible examples of what global optimization achieves so that this article can actually be educational to non-mathematicians. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.76.150.94 (talk) 14:35, 8 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Don't define a word with the same word

> "Global optimization is ... global optimization ..."

That's recursive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:1061:B0A0:74F6:A589:2BC1:BF53 (talk) 13:21, 24 February 2018 (UTC)Reply


General Theory Section Relies on Single Publication

The entire section cites only Xiaopeng Luo (2018). "Minima distribution for global optimization". This publication only has 3 citations as of 2022. Moreover, looking at the Revision History, it seems this section was added in December 2018 by user Xiaopengluo, whose username suggests that they are the author of the cited publication. I think a general theory section for this article would be helpful, but relying on a single citation that seems to have had minimal impact seems poor practice. I'd recommend deleting this, but for the time being I'm just going to leave a note here stating my objection. Ronald-Dumsfeld (talk) 03:51, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
