Class GoldenSection

java.lang.Object

genopt.algorithm.Optimizer

genopt.algorithm.util.linesearch.ModelFiniteIntervalSearcher

genopt.algorithm.GoldenSection

public class GoldenSection
extends ModelFiniteIntervalSearcher

Class for doing a one-dimensional minimization using the Golden Section algorithm.

To do the optimization, a unimodal interval of the parameter being varied must be specified. The interval is given by the lower and upper bound of the parameter specified in the command file.

GoldenSection

public GoldenSection(GenOpt genOptData)
              throws OptimizerException,
                     java.io.IOException,

Constructor

Parameters:

genOptData - a reference to the GenOpt object.
Note: the object is used as a reference. Hence, the datas of GenOpt are modified by this Class.

Throws:

OptimizerException - if algorithm is used for problems with more than 1 independent variable

java.lang.Exception

java.io.IOException - if an I/O exception occurs

InputFormatException
