Detailed Description

Interface to produce randomized candidate solutions.

Candidate solutions are produced by randomly perturbing degrees of freedom by a prescribed amount (and often limited by a maximum step size and/or upper and lower bounds).

Member Function Documentation

virtual void pallas::StepFunction::Step ( double *  x, unsigned int  num_parameters  )

pure virtual

Produces a randomized candidate solution by modifying the input variable x.

Must override in derived class to implement custom step functions.

Parameters

x	double*. The current state of the parameters. Should be modified in place to achieve new state.
num_parameters.	unsigned int. The number of parameters to modify in x.

Implemented in pallas::BoundedStepFunction, and pallas::DefaultStepFunction.
