The simplex algorithm applies this insight by walking along edges of the (possibly unbounded) polytope to vertices with higher objective function value.
Simplex Algorithm. A nonlinear estimation algorithm that does not rely on the computation or estimation of the derivatives of the loss function.
The simplex algorithm solves LP problems by constructing an admissible solution at a vertex of the polyhedron, ...
