Abstract

An optimization device comprising a function for inputting an objective function to be optimized, a required precision required for optimizing and a search region for the optimal solution to make the objective function into a convex function, a function for inputting the convex objective function to start the search of the optimal solution from the search region of the optimal solution, and a function for detecting the optimal solution based on the detected search start point.
