Trust-region nonlinear solver
by Sébastien Villemot 10 Mar '14

10 Mar '14

Hi, I just added a new nonlinear solver for the steady command: it is a trust-region solver, available under solve_algo=4 (it replaces the old value of that option, which was a Newton without the correction for singular Jacobian; I had added that variant a long time ago, and it was neither really useful nor theoretically grounded). The implementation of the solver is essentially the fsolve.m from Octave, that I have adapted for MATLAB compatibility and that I have also slightly simplified. I am wondering whether we may want to use this new solver as the default, since trust-region algorithms are nowadays considered to be the state of the art for solving systems of nonlinear equations. Said otherwise, should we modify the default to be solve_algo=4 instead of solve_algo=2 ? Since I have not thoroughly tested the new solver, a first step would probably to test it on various relevant examples.

Re: [DynareDev] [DynareWiki] Update of "DeterministicSimulationBlocks" by JohannesPfeifer
by Sébastien Villemot 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

Le lundi 03 mars 2014 à 13:30 +0000, DynareWiki a écrit : > The "DeterministicSimulationBlocks" page has been changed by JohannesPfeifer: Thanks Johannes for the analysis of the problems with the current interface. I think this is very useful. If we want to tackle this issue, the biggest challenge of course is to maintain backward compatibility. For that reason, I think it is not possible to change the semantics of existing blocks. I think the most realistic plan would therefore consist in introducing new syntaxes that would co-exist with the old ones. Then we would recommend the use of the new syntaxes, and deprecate the old ones by issuing warnings when they are used. And finally, after a few major releases, we could drop the old syntaxes. If everyone agrees with this approach, the next step would therefore to suggest some new syntaxes and precisely describe their semantics. -- Sébastien Villemot Researcher in Economics Dynare developer http://www.dynare.org/sebastien

OSR
by Johannes Pfeifer 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

Dear all, is there a particular reason for not saving the results of osr (stored in osr_res during the run of osr.m) into oo_? If not, I would suggest to add a subfield osr to oo_ in order to store oo_.osr.optim_params and oo_.osr.objective_function My current reading is that those values are printed, but are not easily accessible. Best, Johannes
