Constructor Detail

AbsoluteError

public AbsoluteError(EqualityConstraints constraints,
                     double[] weights)
Construct an AbsoluteError penalty function from a set of equality constraints.

Parameters:
constraints - a set of equality constraints
weights - weights assigned to the constraints

AbsoluteError

public AbsoluteError(EqualityConstraints constraints,
                     double weights)
Construct an AbsoluteError penalty function from a set of equality constraints. We assign the same weight to all constraints.

Parameters:
constraints - a set of equality constraints
weights - the same weight assigned to the constraints

AbsoluteError

public AbsoluteError(EqualityConstraints constraints)
Construct an AbsoluteError penalty function from a set of equality constraints. We assign the same default weight to all constraints.

Parameters:
constraints - a set of equality constraints
Method Detail

evaluate

public double evaluate(double... x)
Description copied from interface: RealScalarFunction
A real function, f, takes a double array double[],
{x0, x1, ..., xn}
and maps it to a double,
f(x0, x1, ..., xn)

Parameters:
x - {x} = {x0, x1, ... xn}
Returns:
f({x}) as output
