Is it possible to specify more than one equality constraint in nloptr
function in R? The code that I am trying to run is the following:
eval_f <- function( x ) {
return( list( "objective" = x[3]^2+x[4]^2,
"gradient" = c( 0,
0,
2*x[3],
2*x[4] ) ) )
}
# constraint functions
# equalities
eval_g_eq <- function( x ) {
constr <- c( x[1] + x[2] + x[3] - 4,
x[1]^2 + x[2]^2 + x[4] - 15
)
grad <- c( c(1, 1, 1, 0),
c(2*x[1], 2*x[2], 0, 1)
)
return( list( "constraints"=constr, "jacobian"=grad ) )
}
# initial values
x0 <- c( 1, 5, 5, 1 )
local_opts <- list( "algorithm" = "NLOPT_LD_MMA",
"xtol_rel" = 1.0e-7 )
opts <- list( "algorithm" = "NLOPT_LD_AUGLAG",
"xtol_rel" = 1.0e-7,
"maxeval" = 1000,
"local_opts" = local_opts )
res <- nloptr( x0=x0,
eval_f=eval_f,
eval_g_eq=eval_g_eq,
opts=opts)
print( res )
The result it produce is the following:
Current value of controls: -1.035323 3.093593 2.409501 0.2708714
However these values do not hold equality constraints, i.e.
-1.035323 + 3.093593 + 2.409501 = 4.467771
(-1.035323)^2 + 3.093593^2 + 0.2708714 = 10.91308
I guess that either it is impossible to specify multiple equality constraints in nloptr
function or I passed them in the wrong way.
I did not find any example having more than one equality constraint in package documentation.
UPDATE
Ok, I solved it. The case was that specifying constr
and grad
in eval_g_eq
, one should use rbind()
instead of c()
.
