Re: [R] nonlinear programming package

2010-09-11 Thread Ravi Varadhan
There are currently 2 packages that can be of help for solving the type of 
problems that you are describing:

1.  Rsolnp

2.  alabama

For optimizing nonlinear objective functions subject to linear 
equality/inequality constraints, you also have the `spg' function in the BB 
package.  In contrast, the `constrOptim' function in the base distribution can 
handle only linear inequality constraints.

All of these packages are available on CRAN.

Hope this helps,
Ravi.

 Hello R users,
 
 Can anyone recommend me any package that can be used to solve linear 
 programming subject to nonlinear equality/inequality constraints. 
 Rdonlp2 is now unavailable due to licensing issue.
 
 Thanks,
