Class BracketFinder

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.math3.optim.univariate.BracketFinder
public class BracketFinder extends Object
Provide an interval that brackets a local optimum of a function. This code is based on a Python implementation (from SciPy, module optimize.py v0.5).
Since:
2.2

  • Constructor Details

    • BracketFinder

      public BracketFinder()
      Constructor with default values 100, 500 (see the other constructor).

    • BracketFinder

      public BracketFinder(double growLimit, int maxEvaluations)
      Create a bracketing interval finder.
      Parameters:
      growLimit - Expanding factor.

  • Method Details

    • search

      public void search(UnivariateFunction func, GoalType goal, double xA, double xB)
      Search new points that bracket a local optimum of the function.
      Parameters:
      func - Function whose optimum should be bracketed.
      goal - Goal type.
      xA - Initial point.
      xB - Initial point.
      Throws:
      TooManyEvaluationsException - if the maximum number of evaluations is exceeded.
