Optimization Algorithm

[hamoonwetland]

Dear Friends,

I want to know more about the optimization algorithm in vensim. How it works? and what are the options in the optimization dialogue for example: Optimizer, Sensitivity, Multiple Start and every option which is in the optimization window after the first next.
Also please inform me about the kalman filtering.
I wonder if there is a manual related to this topic?

With Regards,
Milad

Chapter 18 in the Vensim user guide discusses optimization. You will find all the answers in there.

All of this material is in the help system, accessible from the Help>Vensim Manuals menu.

Hi Milad, if you do a search for optimization in this forum, you will find plenty of useful information on both the algorithm as well as on how and where to use it effectively.

My Best,

Karan
