Detailed Description

This class provides a mix-in interface for allowing subclass merit functions to compute the directional 1D derivative at a base point.

The quantities Gf(xo) (gradient of f(xo)) c(xo), h(xo) and d are used by several types of merit functions to calculate the derivative of:
d(phi(x_k + alpha_k*d_k))/d(alpha_k) at alpha_k = 0.

It is generally assumed that d satisfies Gc_k'*d_k + c_k = 0 otherwise the merit function would need Gc_k to compute this directional derivative properly.

Member Function Documentation

virtual value_type ConstrainedOptPack::MeritFuncNLPDirecDeriv::calc_deriv ( const Vector &  Gf_k,
const Vector *  c_k,
const Vector *  h_k,
const Vector *  hl,
const Vector *  hu,
const Vector &  d_k 
)
pure virtual

Calculate d(phi(x_k + alpha_k*d_k))/d(alpha_k) at alpha_k = 0.

The value is stored internally by the subclass are returned by its deriv() member usually. The value is also returned from this function.

If the sizes of the vectors input do not aggree then #std::length_error# exception will be thrown.

Implemented in ConstrainedOptPack::MeritFuncNLPModL1, and ConstrainedOptPack::MeritFuncNLPL1.
