Gilles created MATH-914:
---------------------------
Summary: Inconsistent multi-start randomization (optimizers)
Key: MATH-914
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-914
Project: Commons Math
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.0, 3.1
Reporter: Gilles
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 3.2
In class "o.a.c.m.optim.BaseMultiStartMultivariateOptimizer", the "starting
points" generator is passed at construction. But random initial guesses must
fulfill the bound constraint and be somehow related to the user-supplied
initial guess; and those are passed to the "optimize" method and thus can
change from one call to the other, leading to inconsistent (and probably
useless) multi-starts.
