Public Member Functions
Optimize (StateIn &)
Restore the state of a Function object.
Optimize (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
The KeyVal constructor reads the following information:.

virtual int optimize ()
Do the optimization.

Detailed Description
The Optimize class is an abstract base class for classes that find the extreme points of Function's.
Constructor & Destructor Documentation
sc::Optimize::Optimize (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
The KeyVal constructor reads the following information:. .IP "checkpoint" 1c If true, the optimization will be checkpointed. The default is false.
- checkpoint_file
- The name of the checkpoint file. The name defaults to opt_ckpt.dat.
- max_iterations
- The maximum number of interations. The default is 10.
- max_stepsize
- The maximum stepsize. The default is 0.6.
- function
- A Function object. There is no default.
- convergence
- This can be either a floating point number or a Convergence object. If it is a floating point number then it is the convergence criterion. See the description Convergence class for the default.
Member Function Documentation
virtual int sc::Optimize::optimize () [virtual]
Do the optimization. Returns nonzero if the optimization is complete.
void sc::Optimize::save_data_state (StateOut &) [virtual]
Save the base classes (with save_data_state) and the members in the same order that the StateIn CTOR initializes them. This must be implemented by the derived class if the class has data.
Reimplemented from sc::SavableState.
Reimplemented in sc::EFCOpt, sc::GDIISOpt, sc::NewtonOpt, sc::LineOpt, sc::QNewtonOpt, and sc::SteepestDescentOpt.
virtual int sc::Optimize::update () [pure virtual]
Take a step. Returns 1 if the optimization has converged, otherwise 0.
Implemented in sc::EFCOpt, sc::GDIISOpt, sc::MCSearch, sc::NewtonOpt, sc::Backtrack, sc::QNewtonOpt, and sc::SteepestDescentOpt.
