Using scipy's genetic algorithm for initial parameter estimation

[zunzun]

I have used scipy's Differential Evolution genetic algorithm to find initial parameters for fitting a double Lorentzian peak equation to Raman spectroscopy data. I found that the results were excellent, and see from your GitHub project that you might find my project to be interesting.

The GitHub project, with a test spectroscopy data file, is:

If you have any questions, please let me know.
