Description: The shuffled complex evolution with principal components analysis–University of California at Irvine (SP-UCI) method is a global optimization algorithm designed for high-dimensional and complex problems. It is based on the Shuffled Complex Evolution (SCE-UA) Method (by Dr. Qingyun Duan et al.), but solves a serious problem in searching over high-dimensional spaces," population degeneration". The population degeneration problem refers to the phenomenon that, when searching over the highdimensional parameter spaces, the population of the searching particles is very likely to collapse into a subspace of the parameter space, therefore losing the capability of exploring the entire parameter space. In addition, the SP-UCI method also combines the strength of shuffled complex, the Nelder-Mead simplex, and mutinormal resampling to achieve efficient and effective high-dimensional optimization.
