I recently stumbled across what looks like a very interesting paper concerning a simplex-based bisection algorithm for multidimensional optimization.
The authors provide results from their own MATLAB code, which is apparently not publicly available.
I have not heard about this method on SE - has it been verified or used anywhere else?
[EDIT] Does anyone know of an implementation (any programming language), or failing that a more detailed description of the algorithm. It is a 17 year old paper after all . . . or should I assume either it does not really work very well, or is being kept intentionally private (e.g. proprietary code).
[EDIT 2] More recent and "complete" (including main method!) link here.
[EDIT 3] Found a citation in the literature review section of the paper here, although the paper itself is not really useful to me.
