The Nelder-Mead Simplex Method is direct search algorithm that's useful for non-linear
optimization problems. I was researching optimization of antenna arrays at one point and
implemented several versions of the Nelder-Mead algorithm.

Research into the application of non-linear search methods - both direct-search and
gradient based methods - as applied to the optimization of antenna arrays has been
investigated. A novel algorithm termed Empirical Optimization was
eventually developed to optimize an array in a specific environment.
