sceua: Shuffled Complex Evolution Algorithm for Optimization

Provides an 'R' interface to a 'Rust' implementation of the Shuffled Complex Evolution - University of Arizona (SCE-UA) global optimization algorithm (Duan et al., 1992). SCE-UA combines simplex search, competitive evolution, and complex shuffling to solve nonlinear, non-convex, continuous parameter estimation problems. The method is commonly used for calibrating hydrological and environmental models and follows the algorithm proposed by Duan et al. (1992) <doi:10.1029/91WR02985>.
