A set of Jupyter notebooks that investigate and compare the performance of:
- Numerical unconstrained optimization techniques (univariate search, Powell's method and Gradient Descent (fixed step and optimal step)) against these benchmark functions: De Jong’s function in 2D, Rosenbrock’s valley in 2D, Rastrigin’s function in 2D, 4-Easom’s function, Branins’s function.
- Numerical constrained optimization technique "Exterior Penalty method" against several self-constructed examples of objective functions to minimize/maximize.
This project was developed as part of the course Optimization Techniques in the Fall 2022 semester at the Faculty of Engineering, Alexandria University, under the Computer and Communications Engineering department, supervised by Dr. Yasmine Abou Elseoud.
This project was developed in the following environment:
- Jupyter Notebook
- Miniconda
- Python 3.11.5
