Nonlinear programming problem
Hello useRs, I'm using the command "solnp" in package "Rsolnp" to solve a general nonlinear programming problem. But I got an error that " the leading minor of order 15 is not positive definite ". Can anybody tell what may cause this error? Does it have something to do with the starting values? Thanks a lot!!! Xiaoxi [[alternative HTML version

constrained optimisation in R.
i want to estimate parameters with maximum likelihood method with contraints (contant numbers). for example sum(Ai)=0 and sum(Bi)=0 i have done it without the constraints but i realised that i have to use the contraints. Without constraints(just a part-not complete): skellamreg_LL=function(parameters,z,design) { n=length(z); mu=parameters[1]; H=parameters[2]; Apar=parameters[3:10];

Random Sample
Hello R users, Here is my question about generating random sample. How to set the random seed to recreate the same random numbers? For example, 10 random numbers is generated from N(0,1), then "runif(10)" is used.What if I want to get the same 10 random numbers when I run runif(10) again? Is it possible?I think .Random.seed should be used here. Thanks. Xiaoxi [[alternative

Rdonlp2 package question
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.

good numerical optimization to use in R?
Hi all, Could anybody point me to a good/robust numerical optimization program to use in R? I am doing some MLE fitting. Thanks!

Error using the Rdonlp2‏ Package
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

non-linear contrained optimization
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:

constraint optimization: solving large scale general nonlinear problems
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

adding overall constraint in optim()
Hi, You can use the projectLinear argument in BB::spg to optimize with linear equality/inequality constraints. Here is how you implement the constraint that all parameters sum to 1. require(BB) spg(par=p0, fn=myFn, project="projectLinear", projectArgs=list(A=matrix(1, 1, length(p0)), b=1, meq=1)) Hope this is helpful, Ravi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Regarding posting a package to R-forge (with one of the dependent packages not in CRAN)
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

nonlinear constrained optimization
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

constrainOptim
Dear R helpers I have a question regarding the constrainOptim. I'm coding the nested logit and would like to set a bound of rho to (0,1] as an extreme value distribution where rho = exp(lambda)/1+exp(lambda) I wonder if I can do that directly in optim (say rho > 0 & <= 1) or need to use constrainOptim I read the help but still don't know how to set ui and ci Thanks, June

Non-linear optimisation
Hi there, I have a piece of Matlab code I use to optimise a trding strategy. If there are any Matlab/R specialists out there, I would appreciate your help in doing the exact same optimisation in R. I suspect I would use nlm() in R but am not sure where to define my constraints. I have attached my Matlab code below for reference. Many thanks. Constraints function [c,ceq]=TriskellConstraints(X)

constrOptim parameters
Dear R wizards: I am playing (and struggling) with the example in the constrOptim function. simple example. let's say I want to constrain my variables to be within -1 and 1. I believe I want a whole lot of constraints where ci is -1 and ui is either -1 or 1. That is, I have 2*N constraints. Should the following work? N=10 x= rep(1:N) ci= rep(-1, 2*N) ui= c(rep(1, N), rep(-1, N))

optimal control, maximization with several variables?
Dear all, I would like to solve the following problem, which can be done with optimal control theory or dynamic programming: max(x,y) a*u1+b*u2+c*f1(u2) s.t. 0<u1<x, 0<u2<f2(x,u2), x'=f3(u1,u2,x) which can be rewritten if optimal control theory should be applied as H=a*u1+b*u2+c*f1(u2)+lambda*(x') s.t. 0<u1<x, 0<u2<f2(x,u2) The maximum principle
