C# Class SwarmOps.Optimizers.PS

Pattern Search (PS), an early variant was originally due to Fermi and Metropolis at the Los Alamos nuclear laboratory, as described by Davidon (1). It is also sometimes called compass search. This is a slightly different variant by Pedersen (2). It works for a wide variety of optimization problems, especially when only few iterations are allowed. It does, however, stagnate rather quickly.
