SYNOPSIS

Public Member Functions

ExponentialSchedule (const double lambda=0.001)

double Lambda () const

Get the cooling speed, lambda. double & Lambda ()

Modify the cooling speed, lambda. double NextTemperature (const double currentTemperature, const double)

Returns the next temperature given current status.

Private Attributes

double lambda

The cooling speed.

Detailed Description

The exponential cooling schedule cools the temperature T at every step according to the equation.

\[ T_{n+1} = (1-\lambda) T_{n} \]

where $ 0<\lambda<1 $ is the cooling speed. The smaller $ \lambda $ is, the slower the cooling speed, and better the final result will be. Some literature uses $ \alpha = (-1 \lambda) $ instead. In practice, $ \alpha $ is very close to 1 and will be awkward to input (e.g. alpha = 0.999999 vs lambda = 1e-6).
