NLopt is a free/open-source library for nonlinear optimization,
|
|
providing a common interface for a number of different free optimization
|
|
outines available online as well as original implementations of various
|
|
other algorithms. Its features include:
|
|
|
|
- Callable from C, C++, Fortran, Matlab or GNU Octave, Python,
|
|
GNU Guile, Julia, GNU R, Lua, and OCaml.
|
|
- A common interface for many different algorithms -- try a different
|
|
algorithm just by changing one parameter.
|
|
- Support for large-scale optimization (some algorithms scalable to
|
|
millions of parameters and thousands of constraints).
|
|
- Both global and local optimization algorithms.
|
|
- Algorithms using function values only (derivative-free) and also
|
|
algorithms exploiting user-supplied gradients.
|
|
- Algorithms for unconstrained optimization, bound-constrained
|
|
optimization, and general nonlinear inequality/equality constraints.
