Abstract
This article analyses a counting process associated with a stochastic process arising in global optimisation. Backtracking adaptive search (BAS) is a theoretical stochastic global optimisation algorithm modelling the temporary acceptance of solutions of lower quality. BAS generalises the pure adaptive search and hesitant adaptive search algorithms, whose full search duration distributions are known. This article gives the exact expected search duration for backtracking adaptive search.
