Dear experts, I'm attempting to solve a constrained optimization problem using the Rdonlp2 package. I created a Lagrange function (L=f(x)-lambda(g(x)-c)), where x is a vector of 16 parameters. This is what I'm using as objective function in the code below. In addition, I set bounds on these parameters (par.u and par.l). When I run the code, I get the error message shown below. Any idea

Previous versions have this question have partially bounced. I apologize if parts of this are showing up multiple times on the list. Another try ... There was at one time an R package called Rdonlp2 for solving constrained nonlinear programming problems. Both the objective function and the constraints could be nonlinear in the decision variables. The package is no longer in the CRAN list.

Hello R users, Can anyone recommend me any package that can be used to solve linear programming subject to nonlinear equality/inequality constraints. Rdonlp2 is now unavailable due to licensing issue. Thanks, Xiaoxi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

All, I have searched the previous help boards and discovered the problem with Rdonlp2 - Specifically, its non-availability. I thought that this was my solution, but perhaps there is a better way that you all could help me with. I imagine that this problem is trivial to people such as the experts on this mailing list. I am trying to solve this problem over and over again in a simulation:

Hi Guys, Recently I wrote a package for dealing with Markov Switching Regressions in R and it is included in the Rmetrics project. https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/rmetrics/ Everything works fine when I use it in computer. But, the package depends on the use of optimization functions from the package Rdonlp2, which is not available on CRAN. So, if I have Rdonlp2 in my laptop (or any

Hi I need advice regarding constraint optimization with large number of variables. I need to solve the following problem max f(x1,...,xn) x1,..xn x1=g1(x1,...,xn) . . xn=gn(x1,...,xn) I am using Rdonlp2 package which works well until 40 variables in my case. I need to solve this problem with over 300 variables. In this case Rdonlp2 is very very slowly. I know

Dear Sir, I installed successfully using the install.packages("Rdonlp2", repos=" http://R-Forge.R-project.org"). I tried on the example which is defined on the Rdonlp help file ,p <- c(-10,10)par.l <- c(0,0); par.u <- c(100,100)lin.u <- 1; lin.l <- 1A <- t(c(1,1))fn <- function(x){ x[1]^2+x[2]^2}ret <- donlp2(p, fn, par.lower=par.l, par.upper=par.u, A=A,

Dear All, I couple of weeks ago, I’ve asked for a package recommendation for nonlinear optimization. In my problem I have a fairly complicated non-linear objective function subject to one non-linear equality constrain. I’ve been suggested to use the *Rdonlp2* package, but I did not get any results after running the program for 5 hrs. Is it normal to run this type of programs for hours? Also,

I'm interested in the Rsolnp package. For their primary function "solnp", one example is given, and there is a reference to "unit tests". Anyone know where these can be found? Also, Rsolnp is used in a few other packages (e.g., depmixS4), but I cannot seem to find source illustrating its call sequence, and the precise definition of the functions passed. Can anyone help?

Dear R users, I have a problem. I would like to solve the following: I have pL = 1/(1+e^(-b0+b1)) pM = 1/(1+e^(-b0)) pH = 1/(1+e^(-b0-b1)) My target function is TF= mean(pL,pM,pH) which must equal 0.5% My non-linear constraint is nl.Const = 1-(pM/pH), which must equal 20%, and would like the values of both b0 and b1 where these conditions are met. I have searched widely for an answer,

Subject: Non-GPL packages for R Packages that are not licensed in a way that permits re-distribution on CRAN are frequently a source of comment and concern on R-help and other lists. A good example of this problem is the Rdonlp2 package that has caused a lot of annoyance for a number of optimization users in R. They are also an issue for efforts like Dirk Eddelbuettel's cran2deb. There

Hi, i am unable to install the rugarch package. More than that i do not even find this package in my list of possible packages. Its possible than the name has changed, or the package is not longer availiable? Is there a similar package avaliable for garch modelling except the fGarch what i am using now? many Thanks Roland -- View this message in context:

Hi. I need some advises on how to use R to find pi (i is the index) with the following objective function and constraint: max (sum i)[ f(ai, bi, pi) * g(ci, di, pi) * Di ] s.t. (sum i)[ f(ai, bi, pi) * Di * pi] / (sum i)[ f(ai, bi, pi) * Di ] <= constant f and g are diffentiable. So, I am thinking of optim with method = "BFGS"? But wonder how to include the

Good afternoon, In the code below, I have a set of functions (m1,m2,m3,s1,s2, and s3) which represent response surface designs for the mean and variance for three response variables, followed by an objective function that uses the "Big M" method to minimize variance (that is, push s1, s2, and s3 as close to 0 as possible) and hit targets for each of the three means (which are 0, 10,

Hi, I would also be in favor of a stronger stance on licenses. In industry, where we can really get in big trouble for violating a license, we often maintain internal repositories, or need to be careful about filtering what is used from CRAN. I think that is should really be a requirement the package authors commit to stating what the restrictions are on their packages. Nicholas On 10

Dear list, The task view on optimization does not reference a package for non linear constrained optimization problems. Stefan Theussl told me to look at the Rsolnp package, but unfortunately it is not very clear what method is R ported. (The authors ported the matlab code of Yinyu Ye http://www.stanford.edu/~yyye/ <http://www.stanford.edu/%7Eyyye/>) Currently I'm looking for an

Hi R, A quick question.... How can I optimize the objective function constrained to quadratic constraints? Which function of R is useful for quadratic constraints? Many Thanks, Shubha This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged i...{{dropped:13}}
