Abstract:
When a transition control unit stochastically determines whether to accept one of a plurality of state transitions, using a temperature, an energy change, and a random number, depending on a relative relationship between the energy change and thermal excitation energy, the transition control unit adds an offset to the energy change, controls the offset so as to be larger at a local minimum, at which the energy is locally minimized, than at a solution at which the energy is not minimized, and resets the offset to zero when the energy change value is larger than a threshold.

Claim (Index 4):
The optimization apparatus according to  claim 3 , wherein\n the offset control circuit further includes an accumulator having a reset terminal to which the second determination result is outputted, and the accumulator resets the offset to zero when the second determination result indicates that the one of the energy changes or the absolute value of the one of the energy changes is larger than the first threshold, and adds an offset increment to the offset when the second determination result indicates that the one of the energy changes or the absolute value of the one of the energy changes is equal to or smaller than the first threshold.
