Description: Simulated annealing is a generic probabilistic algorithm used in a fixed period of time to seek in a large search space to find the optimal solution.
Simulated annealing terminology from metallurgical annealing. Heating the material after annealing is cooled at a specific rate through the purpose is to increase the grain size, and reduce defects in the crystal lattice. Atoms in the original material will remain in the internal energy of a local minimum position, heating energy increases, atoms leave the original position, and move randomly in other locations. Annealing cooling rate is slow, so that atoms are more likely to be found within a position lower than the original.
The principle is also simulated annealing and metal annealing approximation principle: We will apply the theory of thermodynamics to statistical would imagine every point within the search space of air molecules molecular energy is the kinetic energy of its own while searching for space every point, like air
