During the optimisation I monitor the values of those variables as well as the value of the cost function to minimise.<br><br>I find that after 36 iterations that the values of the parameters "did not change much":<br><br><font face="courier new,courier,monaco,monospace,sans-serif">iteration 1 : x1=765 x2=12900 f=1.402D+08<br>iteration 36: x1=764.82264 x2=12900 f=1.400D+08</font><br><br>Is there a way to force the increment value of the parameters that are being optimised? For instance x1 could only be equal to 765, 764, 763...<br><br>My question is similar to this one but I did not find further discussion: http://lists.scilab.org/pipermail/bugzilla/2010-February/000638.html<br><br>Thanks a lot for your help.<br><br><div><span name="x"></span><font size="1"><font size="2">Romain</font></font><br></div></div></body></html>
