Figure1-7 Illustration of Simulated Annealing 1
As iteration increases the simulated temperature is decreased and the
value selected for the variable ‘x is moving towards the global minima point
as shown in the figure 1-7.
Thus values assigned to the variable ‘x’ for the first few iterations
(about 10 iterations in this example) is not really in decreasing order of
f(x). This helps to search the complete range and hence helps in
overcoming the problem of local minima. As iteration goes on increasing
the values selected for the variable ‘x’ is moving towards the global
minima which can be noted from the figure 1-8.
