Hi,
I'm quite new at R and I haven't found the answer to my question anywhere on
the net, so either it is trivial or not documented. So, bare with be.
I am using the quadprog package and its solve.QP routine to solve and
quadratic programming problem with inconsistent constraints, which obviously
doesn't work since the constraint matrix doesn't have full rank. A way to solve
this is to "perturb" the objective function and the constraints with a
parameter that changes at each iteration (so you can dismiss it), but that's
where it gets tricky! Solve.QP doesn't seem to admitt constant terms, it need
Dmat (a matrix) and dvec (a vector) as defined in the package description. Now,
some might object that a constant is a vector but the problem looks like this
Min f(x) = (1/2)x^t Q x + D^t x + d
Can anyone help me, PLEASEEEEEEE?
