摘要
The nested partitions (NP) method is a recently proposed new alternative for global optimization. Primarily aimed at problems with large but finite feasible regions, the method employs a global sampling strategy that is continuously adapted via a partitioning of the feasible region. In this paper we adapt the original NP method to stochastic optimization where the performance is estimated using simulation. We prove asymptotic convergence of the new method and present a numerical example to illustrate its potential.
