Constructor Detail

UnivariateOptimizer

protected UnivariateOptimizer(ConvergenceChecker<UnivariatePointValuePair> checker)
Parameters:
checker - Convergence checker.
Method Detail

optimize

public UnivariatePointValuePair optimize(OptimizationData... optData)
                                  throws TooManyEvaluationsException
Stores data and performs the optimization.

Overrides:
optimize in class BaseOptimizer<UnivariatePointValuePair>
Parameters:
optData - Optimization data. The following data will be looked for:
Returns:
a point/value pair that satifies the convergence criteria.
Throws:
TooManyEvaluationsException - if the maximal number of evaluations is exceeded.

getGoalType

public GoalType getGoalType()
Returns:
the optimization type.

parseOptimizationData

private void parseOptimizationData(OptimizationData... optData)
Scans the list of (required and optional) optimization data that characterize the problem.

Parameters:
optData - Optimization data. The following data will be looked for:

getStartValue

public double getStartValue()
Returns:
the initial guess.

getMin

public double getMin()
Returns:
the lower bounds.

getMax

public double getMax()
Returns:
the upper bounds.

computeObjectiveValue

protected double computeObjectiveValue(double x)
Computes the objective function value. This method must be called by subclasses to enforce the evaluation counter limit.

Parameters:
x - Point at which the objective function must be evaluated.
Returns:
the objective function value at the specified point.
Throws:
TooManyEvaluationsException - if the maximal number of evaluations is exceeded.
