The method is using a response surface to guide the search for the global optimum. This metamodel could be based on radial basis functions, kriging, or a combination of different models. We discuss how to set the cyclic parameters of the optimization method to get a balance between local and global search. We also discuss the eventual problem with Runge oscillations in the response surface.}, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {7}, year = {2015}, pages = {1629 - 1635}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10001424}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/103}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 103, 2015}, }
