### Automatic differentiation necessary for large optimal control problems?

I am investigating ways to solve an optimal control problem in an embedded way, preferably in Java. The system is modeled with triple integrator dynamics $u=\dddot{x}$ and solved with multiple ...

### How to solve the following SDP with cvxpy in Python?

The SDP problem is $$\min_{Z \in S^{n},Y \in S^{m}} {\rm trace}(Z) +{\rm trace}(Y)\\ {\rm s.t.} \begin{bmatrix} Y & X\\ X^T & Z \end{bmatrix} \succeq 0\\ X \in C$$ Where $C$ is a convex set....

### Solve a large-scale linear system of equations with millions of unknowns

I have a large-scale system of linear equations: $Ax = b$, where $A$ is an $n\times n$ square symmetric positive definite matrix (not sparse), $b$ is an $n \times 1$ vector and $x$ is $n\times 1$ ...

### Good C++ optimization library for BFGS

To implement maximum likelihood estimators, I am looking for a good C++ optimization library that plays nicely with Eigen's matrix objects. Eigen has some capability of interfacing of its own but if ...

### Integrating/Implementing NURBS-related calculations

Recently, I started to develop some codes that use NURBS (general things I intend to use/already using: spline generation, interpolation, grids, isolines, closest-point find, and many others), both ...

### Looking for a converter of AMPL/GAMS models into C code

I've done an extensive web search, but could not find an option. Conversion between model formats is available, but conversion of objective function and constraint equations into C code seems absent. ...

### I've developed a derivative-free optimization method, looking for comments

Here is the URL: https://github.com/avaneev/biteopt I've tested it on numerous global optimization benchmarking functions (included), and on real-world hyperparameter optimization problems I have. ...
