  2. Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_optimization

    Mathematical optimization. Graph of a surface given by z = f (x, y) = − (x ² + y ²) + 4. The global maximum at (x, y, z) = (0, 0, 4) is indicated by a blue dot. Nelder-Mead minimum search of Simionescu's function. Simplex vertices are ordered by their values, with 1 having the lowest ( best) value. Mathematical optimization (alternatively ...

  3. Constrained optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constrained_optimization

    Constrained optimization. In mathematical optimization, constrained optimization (in some contexts called constraint optimization) is the process of optimizing an objective function with respect to some variables in the presence of constraints on those variables. The objective function is either a cost function or energy function, which is to ...

  4. Newton's method in optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method_in...

    Newton's method in optimization. A comparison of gradient descent (green) and Newton's method (red) for minimizing a function (with small step sizes). Newton's method uses curvature information (i.e. the second derivative) to take a more direct route. In calculus, Newton's method (also called Newton–Raphson) is an iterative method for finding ...

  5. Lagrange multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_multiplier

    Lagrange multiplier. In mathematical optimization, the method of Lagrange multipliers is a strategy for finding the local maxima and minima of a function subject to equation constraints (i.e., subject to the condition that one or more equations have to be satisfied exactly by the chosen values of the variables). [1]

  6. Optimization problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimization_problem

    Optimization problem. In mathematics, engineering, computer science and economics, an optimization problem is the problem of finding the best solution from all feasible solutions. Optimization problems can be divided into two categories, depending on whether the variables are continuous or discrete: An optimization problem with discrete ...

  7. Convex optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_optimization

    Convex optimization is a subfield of mathematical optimization that studies the problem of minimizing convex functions over convex sets (or, equivalently, maximizing concave functions over convex sets). Many classes of convex optimization problems admit polynomial-time algorithms, [1] whereas mathematical optimization is in general NP-hard. [2 ...

  8. Differential calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_calculus

    Differential calculus. The graph of a function, drawn in black, and a tangent line to that function, drawn in red. The slope of the tangent line equals the derivative of the function at the marked point. In mathematics, differential calculus is a subfield of calculus that studies the rates at which quantities change. [1]

  9. Karush–Kuhn–Tucker conditions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karush–Kuhn–Tucker...

    In mathematical optimization, the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, also known as the Kuhn–Tucker conditions, are first derivative tests (sometimes called first-order necessary conditions) for a solution in nonlinear programming to be optimal, provided that some regularity conditions are satisfied. Allowing inequality constraints, the ...
