AdityaSavara / PEUQSE

Parameter estimation for complex physical problems often suffers from finding ‘solutions’ that are not physically realistic. The PEUQSE software provides tools for finding physically realistic parameter estimates, graphs of the parameter estimate positions within parameter space, and plots of the final simulation results.

passthrough arguments for doOptimize & bounds #204

Closed AdityaSavara closed 2 years ago

AdityaSavara commented 2 years ago

Currently, the bounds aren't operational for the doOptimizeNegLogP and doOptimizeLogP functions.

Additionally, passthrough args is not really used once provided.

scipy minimize Nelder-Mead does not allow bounds. SLSQP does allow bounds, but evidently does not seem to work well. L-BFGS-B also allows bounds, but is not he preferred option for minmizing posteriors. No good solution, at present.

Solved temporarily by forcing L-BFGS-B when bounds are on.
