The present work describes an improvement to this algorithm and also explores how its performance depends on the number of non-physical dimensions. © 2003 Published by Elsevier B.V. date: 2004-02-02 date_type: published publication: Chemical Physics Letters volume: 385 number: 1-2 pagerange: 101 - 104 refereed: TRUE issn: 0009-2614 id_number: 10.1016/j.cplett.2003.12.059 citation: Bayden, AS and Jordan, KD (2004) Use of extended dimensions in global optimization.
