  • Abstract
    A new method of yield maximization based on the center-of-gravity method is proposed. We show theoretically that for a scalar parameter space and convex region of acceptability the method is exact and converges in a single step. The new method is tested on a multidimensional parameter space and shown to converge more rapidly than the original CG method
