Hi all, It seems that optimization algorithm, optim, tries to find optimized parameters within defined lower and upper bounds. In my problem, all the parameters are integers. My question is that if there is any means that I can let "optim" only tries mutual exclusive integers. To be specific, I am giving an example here.
I tried to find a set parameters with five elements with the lowest value for the cost function. The parameter set that "optim" returned is "5, 5, 49, 51, 51". However, I only wanted to search unique parameter values, such as "5, 6, 49, 50, 51".
