[MUG] Numerical optimization
Author: Dr Francis J Wright    Posted: Tue, 10 Sep 2002 11:47:50 +0100

>> From: "Dr Francis J. Wright" "F.J.Wright"

I have made a small improvement to my slink package for numerical
optimization based on the Nelder & Mead Downhill Simplex Minimization
algorithm. It now wraps evalf around the function to be optimized if
necessary, in cases when evalhf cannot be used. The current version is a
Maple 7 worksheet, but it uses pre-Maple-6 syntax and so should work on all
versions of Maple since Maple V Release 5 inclusive. The worksheet can be
saved to a library repository and also saved to the help database, or the
code defining the slink function can just be evaluated when required. It is
available as

(or via links from my home page, below).

Product Reviews

"Without the Maple software, we would have to spend weeks generating the equations of motion for every experiment. Then the chances that we did it right would basically be near zero. There would always be a mistake somewhere. It is very difficult to set up a dynamic motion model by hand."
- Jean-Claude PiedBeouf, Ph.D Manager of Robotics, Canadian Space Agency

"Its very good - highly accurate and easy to use. The speed of Maple allows me to change equations and quickly reintegrate them into the application, so more possibilities can be explored to achieve the precise effect desired."
Shawn Neely, Senior R & D Director for PDI/Dreamworks
