* Package name : yorick-optimpack Version : 1.3 Upstream Author : Éric Thiébaut <thieb...@obs.univ-lyon1.fr> * URL : http://www-obs.univ-lyon1.fr/labo/perso/eric.thiebaut/optimpack.html * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: C, Yorick Description : optimization of large scale problems for the Yorick language OptimPack is a portable C library which implements algorithms for optimization of large scale problems with bound constraints. Large scale means some million variables (e.g. pixel values) or more. . The most important algorithm is VMLM-B: a variable metric method with limited memory requirements and, possibly, bound constraints on the parameters. The algorithm is based on limited memory BFGS updates with Moré & Thuente inexact line search and gradient projection to account for bounds. . This package contains a Yorick plug-in based on OptimPack. I am the maintainer of 13 yorick-related packages already in main. OptimPack in required for another package I will ITP right away: yorick-mira. MiRA is used on a regular basis by several persons at my workplace.
