Abstract: Numerov-type methods using four stages per step and sharing sixth algebraic order are considered. The coefficients of such methods are depended on two free parameters. For addressing problems with oscillatory solutions, we traditionally try to satisfy some specific properties such as reduce the phase-lag error, extend the interval of periodicity or even nullify the amplification. All of these latter properties come from a test problem that poses as a solution to an ideal trigonometric orbit. Here, we propose the training of the coefficients of the selected family of methods in a wide set of relevant problems. After performing this training using the differential evolution technique, we arrive at a certain method that outperforms the other ones from this family in an even wider set of oscillatory problems.
