Abstract :
An analysis of Stochastic Diffusion Search (SDS), a novel and efficient optimisation and search algorithm, is presented, resulting in a derivation of the minimum acceptable match resulting in a stable convergence within a noisy search space. The applicability of SDS can therefore be assessed for a given problem.
