Post subject: | Select Parameters to Optimize |
I have a function of "n" variables for optimization. However, in some cases I only want to optimize certain variables and leave the others at fixed values. For my other work i carry a Boolean array indicating which variable to optimize. I'm new to Alglib. Is there a way to do this here? |

Hi! You can use a box constrained optimizer from ALGLIB and fix that variables by specifying BndL=BndU for them. Another option is to modify your function in such a way that it does not depend on these specific parameters, e.g. reads them from a fixed values list. In this case you may get away with unconstrained optimizers like LBFGS, they converge somewhat better. Sergei |
