Scipy optimize def functions vs lambda
Is it normal to have different results between:
Using a lambda expression
And using def function
To express constraints with scipy optimizer
I ll add code later

Python minimize function for different optimization methods in a loop
I have been playing with minimize function and would like to make an simple loop that would optimize a function using different optimization methods. Unfortunately, I have not been able to implement a list of desired methods I would like to try into…

Optimize a vector function over global and local parameters
I have 2 functions F1(a, b, x) and F2(a, b, y).
I want to minimize the sum of F1 and F2 over a, b, x, y.
Naively I could define a new function F(a, b, x, y) = F1(a, b, x) + F2(a, b, y) and optimise this instead. However if I have an array of such…

How to minimise a sum of two functions allowing one of the arguments to vary over both functions?
I have two functions f(x,y,z) and g(x,y,z). I want to minimise the sum
h(x,y,z) = f(x,y,z) + g(x,y,z), allowing x to be variable over both functions f and g.
I can minimise both these functions separately or together using scipy.optimise.minimise,…

How do I minimize an error term by changing two variables (columns) as a replacement for an excel solver in python?
I am converting an old VBA code to a python scribt, and I'm stuck. Does any one know how i can translate this VBA code to a python scipt?
I want to minimize an error term by changing the values in asset_val and asset_vol. The old VBA code that does…

The following code for minimizing a function returns a RuntimeWarning. Why?
I have been learning optimization methods for a few days now. The following code that I wrote returned a RuntimeWarning.
import numpy as np
from scipy.optimize import minimize
def func(a, x):
return 1 + (x - 0.5) * a
def log_like(a, x):

Minimizing a function that depends on two arrays
Is it possible to minimize a function fun(x,y) that depends on two arrays using the Scipy minimizer?
(x and y are two different 1D arrays with different length, e.g. x=np.array([1,2,3,1,52,5]) and y=np.array([4,8,9]))
I'm thinking for something…

Exclude some arguments from the minimization
If I have a function func(x1,x2,x3), can I use the minimize function scipy.optimize.minimize with excluding x3 from the optimization process, where x3 is defined as numpy array.
How can I define the argument in this case?. I'm supposed to get an…

Find interception of rocket and skeet - TypeError
For an assignment I need to calculate the angle beta for the launch of a rocket.
This rocket should hit a skeet in the air and the rocket is just accelerating in the first 0,5s.
In my first part of the exercise I already calculated the trajectory of…

Scipy optimize method using minimize function with binary variable constraints
I'm trying to move an optimization job that I usually do in Excel to a Python script. Basically I have an array of numbers (deals) that in some combination add to the variable (target). The way I find this combination in Excel is to have another…

Python non-linear optimization problem (minimize) in SciPy
I am trying to solve a shift scheduling optimisation problem in Python that is slightly different from the one outlined in this article. The only issue is I can't use the pulp package as it is not a linear problem.
From what I understand, the best…
