Hi. I need some advises on how to use R to find pi (i is the index) with the following objective function and constraint:
max (sum i)[ f(ai, bi, pi) * g(ci, di, pi) * Di ] s.t. (sum i)[ f(ai, bi, pi) * Di * pi] / (sum i)[ f(ai, bi, pi) * Di ] <= constant f and g are diffentiable. So, I am thinking of optim with method = "BFGS"? But wonder how to include the constraint. I also saw constrOptim but it says for linear constraint only. So, what will be the suitable function to use then? Also, how should I write (sum i) in R? Many thanks and your help is much appreciated. ---- Chua Siang Li Consultant - Operations Research Acceval Pte Ltd Tel: 6297 8740 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: www.acceval-intl.com This message and any attachments (the "message"...{{dropped:13}} ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
