Dear all, I am facing the following problem in optimization:
w = (d, o1, ..., op, m1, ..., mq) is a 1 + p + q vector I want to determine: w = argmin (a - d(w))' A (a - d(w)) where a is a 1xK marix, A is the covariance matrix of vector a, d(w) is a 1xK vector which parameters are functions of parameters d, o1 .. op, m1 .. mq. Is there some function to solve this problem easily? I know optim() and ucminf() for one-dimensional optimization (I believe). Are there some tools for such n-dimensional problem? Kind regards, C. -- -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Optimization-n-dimension-matrix-tp3490772p3490772.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
