Av. Pirogov et al., SIMPLEX ALGORITHM AS A TOOL FOR SEARCHING THE OPTIMAL ANALYTICAL CONDITIONS - THE USE IN LIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHY, Journal of analytical chemistry, 52(10), 1997, pp. 918-925
A review on the use of the simplex method for searching the optimal de
termining conditions in liquid chromatography is given. The advantages
and disadvantages are systematized. The mathematical algorithm is des
cribed, the known modifications of the algorithm are compared, and exa
mples are given of the practical optimization of determining condition
s in ion chromatography, The success of the procedure of simplex optim
ization is associated with the problem of choosing an adequate quality
test for chromatograms.
