FSQP - Feasible Sequential Quadratic Programming

This code implements an SQP approach that is modified to generate feasible iterates. In addition to handling general single objective constrained nonlinear optimization problems, the code is also capable of handling multiple competing linear and nonlinear objective functions (minimax), linear and nonlinear inequality constraints, as well as linear and nonlinear equality constraints.

__solve__(opt_problem={}, sens_type='FD', store_sol=True, store_hst=False, hot_start=False, disp_opts=False, sens_mode='', sens_step={}, *args, **kwargs)

Run Optimizer (Optimize Routine)

Keyword arguments:

  • opt_problem -> INST: Optimization instance
  • sens_type -> STR/FUNC: Gradient type, Default = ‘FD’
  • store_sol -> BOOL: Store solution in Optimization class flag, Default = True
  • disp_opts -> BOOL: Flag to display options in solution text, Default = False
  • store_hst -> BOOL/STR: Flag/filename to store optimization history, Default = False
  • hot_start -> BOOL/STR: Flag/filename to read optimization history, Default = False
  • sens_mode -> STR: Flag for parallel gradient calculation, Default = ‘’
  • sens_step -> FLOAT: Sensitivity setp size, Default = {} [corresponds to 1e-6 (FD), 1e-20(CS)]

Additional arguments and keyword arguments are passed to the objective function call.
