minima

It's a global minima as opposed to being a local manima and one needs effort to move from there.

Slashdot seems to have found at least a local minima in balancing editorial selection and audience participation.

Productivity has no value for you, because it doesn't make you happy - you're stuck in a local minima.

Random restarts are also a nice way to escape local minima, but are even more expensive computationally.

Note too that not every local minima is going to be a PD, or even close!

As for restaurant parking minima, they're usually based on inside area and sometimes on seating.

That is what led us to the local minima that is PCs running DOS/Windows.

If your network never converged, it's possible your learning rate was too high, so it kept overshooting the minima of the loss function.

It's ability to get out of local minima make it quite powerful.

Liquid like systems have a very rough potential energy landscape with an enormous number of shallow minima that must be explored to understand the dynamics.

Getting stuck in local minima happens in centrally planned systems too.

During different runs, I could even see how it got stuck into various local minima.

Ineffective techniques will just it caught in local minima or fail to exploit smoothness or "obvious" structure.

"The only winning move is not to play" Or, in this case, to play, but play a safer game, where algorithms find their a local minima, and profits are potentially smaller than when using an aggressive stance, but maximized in the long run.

How "free market" something is is a continuum, not a binary distinction Even worse: it's a multi-dimensional continuum, where the function mapping points from the space "all possible markets" to the space "quality of the resulting health care system" is almost completely unknown, but probably has lots of local maxima and minima distributed throughout the space.
