do_optim function

NLOPT optimization

Perform the optimization

do_optim(
  minus_like,
  start.values,
  lower.values,
  upper.values,
  options_nloptr = list(algorithm = "NLOPT_LN_BOBYQA", xtol_rel = 1e-08, maxeval = 1000),
  optim = c("local", "global"),
  ...
)

Arguments

• minus_like: the function to be minimized
• start.values: vector of starting values
• lower.values: vector of lower values
• upper.values: vector of upper values
• options_nloptr: options to be passed to nloptr
• optim: should a global optimization be performed first ?
• ...: further arguments to be passed to minus_like
