Simplex optimization is one of the simplest algorithms available to train a neural network. Understanding how simplex optimization works, and how it compares to the more commonly used back-propagation ...

The mission to improve the widely used simplex-method algorithm showed instead why it works so well.

We prove that the classic policy-iteration method [Howard, R. A. 1960. Dynamic Programming and Markov Processes. MIT, Cambridge] and the original simplex method with the most-negative-reduced-cost ...

Most examples of cycling in the simplex method are given without explanation of how they were constructed. An exception is Beale's example built around the geometry of the dual simplex method in the ...
