Intelligent MultistartWrapper #5

Open jakobbossek opened 8 years ago

jakobbossek commented 8 years ago

It would be nice to have kind of an intelligent multistart wrapper, that does not sample initial starting points by default, but rather learns from the opt.paths of aforegoing runs how to select the next starting point.

That's a great idea and definitely worth a paper in case we can manage to come up with a good solution for that!

berndbischl commented 8 years ago

it is a good idea to have that. at some point i nearly programmed this myself. but note that there is quite a lot of prior work IIRC. (wrt the paper suggestion)
