Nonlinear programming

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, nonlinear programming is the process of solving an optimization problem defined by a system of equalities and inequalities, collectively termed constraints, over a set of unknown real variables, along with an objective function to be maximized or minimized, where some of the constraints or the objective function are nonlinear.

1/x violates DCP rules in CVXPY

I want to solve a non-linear optimization problem using cvxpy. I get a DCP Error when introducing 1/x in the constraints, where x is a variable. For instance such a code leads to a DCP Error import cvxpy x = cvxpy.Variable(1) obj =…

How can I use Genetic Algorithms to solve non-linear optimization problems in Python?

I am trying to apply the concept of Genetic Algorithm to solve a non-linear optimization problem in Python and compare the results with other methods. I am trying to solve min (x1.x2^2 + x1+x2) to get the optimal solution using GA. I have solved the…
