The multiple-minima problem in small peptides revisited. The Threshold Accepting approach.
A recently reported optimization method, known as Threshold Accepting, was tested for the purpose of locating the structure of several peptide molecules with the lowest conformational energy. A comparison with previous results obtained with the Simulated Annealing technique was made. Our study indicate Threshold Accepting as a better technique in locating such structures.
