maximizeOK: Find maximum of predicted response surface

In blackbox: Black Box Optimization and Exploration of Parameter Space

Find maximum of predicted response surface

Description

Assuming that calcPredictorOK has been first run to produce a predictor of the response surface, this finds its constrained maximum in the convex envelope of the smoothed data.

Usage

maximizeOK(fitobject = blackbox.getOption("fitobject"), cleanResu = "")

Arguments

fitobject	Return object of calcPredictorOK.
cleanResu	A connection, or a character string naming a file for some nicely formated output. If "" (the default), print to the standard output connection.

Value

A list with element

par	predictor values maximizing the predicted response (in the parameter space used for Kriging)
value	maximum of the predicted response
canonVP	Representation of par in canonical parameter space

and possibly other elements (i) returned by an optimization function such as optim; (ii) values of additional transformed parameters; (iii) cryptic information whether maximization occurred at some boundary of the convex envelope.
