Simulated Annealing in Python

Project description

simanneal is a python implementation of the [simulated annealing optimization](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing) technique.

Simulated annealing is used to find a close-to-optimal solution among an extremely large (but finite) set of potential solutions. It is particularly useful for [combinatorial optimization](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_optimization) problems defined by complex objective functions that rely on external data.
