bobyqa stability #342

Open vhaguiar opened 4 years ago

vhaguiar commented 4 years ago

bobyqa gives different solutions when given the same initial values, bobyqa algorithm is deterministic, so It should give same solutions if given same initial values

vhaguiar commented 4 years ago

it seems that rhobeg, rhoend are in a nonstandard way, this may cause instability in the stopping rule

please provide a testcase, more infos about os, distro, compiler, libc etc so we can replicate the issue
