paper is to discuss the benefits of using radial basis functions within a pattern search methods framework in the … optimization of the highly non-convex beam angle optimization (BAO) problem. Pattern search methods are derivative … two characteristics gathered together make pattern search methods suited to address the BAO problem. The pattern search …
