It is possible for Embed to terminate at a point that is not optimal. If X is the vector of n variables when Embed terminates (final values of the parameterUnknowns), then one of the following conditions must hold:
•X closely approximates a global optimum
•X closely approximates a local optimum, but not a global optimum
•X does not closely approximate even a local optimum
These statements apply in both Phase I and Phase II optimization.
