Detailed Description

Wrapper class for optimizers defined using COLIN.

The COLINOptimizer class wraps COLIN, a Sandia-developed C++ optimization interface library. A variety of COLIN optimizers are defined in COLIN and its associated libraries, including SCOLIB which contains the optimization components from the old COLINY (formerly SGOPT) library. COLIN contains optimizers such as genetic algorithms, pattern search methods, and other nongradient-based techniques. COLINOptimizer uses a COLINApplication object to perform the function evaluations.

The user input mappings are as follows: max_iterations, max_function_evaluations, convergence_tolerance, and solution_accuracy are mapped into COLIN's max_iterations, max_function_evaluations_this_trial, function_value_tolerance, sufficient_objective_value properties. An outputLevel is mapped to COLIN's output_level property and a setting of debug activates output of method initialization and sets the COLIN debug attribute to 10000 for the DEBUG output level. Refer to [Hart, W.E., 2006] for additional information on COLIN objects and controls.

Member Function Documentation

◆ core_run()

void core_run ( )
virtual

◆ returns_multiple_points()

bool returns_multiple_points ( ) const
virtual

some COLIN methods can return multiple points

Designate which solvers can return multiple final points.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

References COLINOptimizer::solverType.

◆ solver_setup()

void solver_setup ( unsigned short  method_name)
protected

convenience function for setting up the particular COLIN solver and appropriate Application

This convenience function is called by the constructors in order to instantiate the solver.

◆ set_rng()

void set_rng ( int  seed)
protected

sets up the random number generator for stochastic methods

Instantiate random number generator (RNG).

◆ set_solver_parameters()

void set_solver_parameters ( )
protected

◆ post_run()

void post_run ( std::ostream &  s)
protectedvirtual

Get the final set of points from the solver Look up responses and sort, first according to constraint violation, then according to function value.

Supplement Optimizer::post_run to first retrieve points from the Colin cache (or possibly the Dakota DB) and rank them. When complete, this function will populate bestVariablesArray and bestResponsesArray with iterator-space data, that is, in the context of the solver, leaving any further untransformation to Optimizer.

Reimplemented from Iterator.

◆ colin_cache_lookup()

std::pair< bool, bool > colin_cache_lookup ( const colin::AppResponse &  colinResponse,
Response tmpResponseHolder 
)
protected

Retrieve response from Colin AppResponse, return pair indicating success for <objective, constraints>

Encapsulated Colin Cache response extraction, which will ultimately become the default lookup. Might want to return separate vectors of function values and constraints for use in the sort, but not for now (least change). Return true if not needed or successful lookup.

◆ constraint_violation()

double constraint_violation ( const Response tmpResponseHolder)
protected

Compute constraint violation, based on nonlinear constraints in iteratedModel and provided Response data.

BMA TODO: incorporate constraint tolerance, possibly via elevating SurrBasedMinimizer::constraint_violation(). Always use iteratedModel to get the constraints; they are in the right space.
