A PDE Framework of Consensus-Based Optimization for Objectives with Multiple Global Minimizers

Massimo Fornasier, Lukang Sun

Consensus-based optimization (CBO) is an agent-based derivative-free method for non-smooth global optimization that has been introduced in 2017, leveraging a surprising interplay b…
