'''CLOP''' for Noisy Black-Box Parameter Optimization,
a program used for [[Automated Tuning|parameter tuning]], created by [[Rémi Coulom]]. The CLOP principle, which stands for [http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/confidence Confident] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_search_%28optimization%29 Local OPtimization] <ref>[http://remi.coulom.free.fr/CLOP/ CLOP: Confident Local Optimization for Noisy Black-Box Parameter Tuning]</ref>, is an approach to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_regression local regression] that overcomes problems with very [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_noise noisy] outputs and nonnegative [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hessian_matrix Hessians] <ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_partial_derivative_test Second partial derivative test from Wikipedia]</ref> in a simple and efficient way.
