Calibration of the modified Bartlett-Lewis model using global optimization techniques and alternative objective functions
The calibration of stochastic point process rainfall models, such as of the Bartlett-Lewis type, suffers from the presence of multiple local minima which local search algorithms usually fail to avoid. To meet this shortcoming, four relatively new global optimization methods are presented and tested...
