[R] control parameter for Nelder-Mead algorithm in optim()
Hi, In manual for optim() function, there are three control parameters for Nelder-Mead algorithm: alpha (reflection),beta(contraction) and gamma(expansion), but in the original paper, there is another parameter delta which controls shrinkage, how can I set this shrink parameter? Or is beta actually the same meaning as delta? TIA WC
