re-evaluation

Open franciscorichter opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hello, Thanks so much for this package, it has been quite useful to me. But I am optimising a random function so I really need re-evaluation at every step. In the reference paper of 2011 says that this is possible with checkWinner , but this option is not anymore and previous versions of the package are not working properly in my computer either. Is there any way to get that functionality back?

Regards, Francisco.

In the NEWS file, I see --- Changes in version 2.2-0 o checkWinner and avWinner options have been removed. If the user desires averaging (to deal with a stochastic objective function) then a wrapper function may be used to give the average value over several calls.

Would using a wrapper function that takes the average or best of several calls of your random function work for your needs?
