Derivative-free optimization

Derivative free optimization (or derivative-free optimization) is a subject of mathematical optimization. It may refer to problems for which derivative information is unavailable, unreliable or impractical to obtain (derivative-free optimization problems), or methods that do not use derivatives (derivative-free optimization methods).[1]
