[R] Multimodal multidimensional optimization

2013-10-18 Thread Jonathan Thayn
Hello all I've been performing a series of multidimensional optimizations (3 variables) using the optima() function. Recently, I noticed that the solution is rarely unimodal. Is there a package or function that handles multimodal multidimensional optimizations? I really appreciate any

1. This is not an R question. Post on a statistics or optimization list. 2. However, I would note that if what you mean by multimodalsolution is that there is more than one value that gives the same optimal value (within numerical error?) then, probably no: An optimization function by definition
