Convcode in optimx / Synth in R

I've been using the Synth package (which uses optimx for the optimization) and I can't find the answer to whether Synth gives a non-convergence error when it doesn't converge. I can see in the help file for optimx that, by default, it does not save…

Recording non-convergence in SAS NLIN

I have a question about SAS-proc nlin. I'm performing the procedure for 10000 simulations. Lots of them do not converge and give me wrong results. I would like to add a binary variable to my output table that says that this itteration did not…

cannot test the convergence of neural network

I'm using Weka multilayer-perceptron classifier to do classifications. I want to know after exactly how many epochs the neural network converges (weights don't update any more). I'm using its Java API, but I cannot figure out a way to get the weight…

Lessen degree of perspective in 3D grid (reduce convergence)

Please see the following image: Which mathematical method or POV-Ray/OpenGL command will lessen the convergence of a grid like this? (The grid converges too quickly; theta should be 90 degrees, matching the center line, for this…

Change perspective in POV-Ray? (less convergence)

Can you change the perspective in POV-Ray, so that convergence between parallel lines does not look so steep? E.g. change this angle (the convergence of the checkered floor into the distance) here To an angle like this I want it to seem like you're…

Determine whether a recursive function converges

Consider the following recursive factorial function: fact(n) = if (n = 0) return 1 return n * fact(n - 1) The above function converges for all positive integers including zero. However it doesn't converge for negative integers. Next,…

Is there a better mechanism for testing convergence?

I am calculating a value using Newton method, and I use a for loop to test if it is converged or not. But I feel like using a fix value inside the for loop is not a best way to do so. Any suggestion? double startingRate = 0.1; double…

Why does the Python function not return the expected representation of the Pandas column?

I calculate the root search function in the dichotomy() equation using the dichotomy method and then output the values using the print_dichotomy() decorator. I believe that in the end I will see the columns root - the value of the function at the…
