The idea for the software originated with my Mathematics final exam, where I had to plot the Simplex Method in a document to then send it off. The process was long, and even programming the method in ...

The SimplexMethod package provides an efficient implementation of the Simplex Algorithm for solving linear programming (LP) problems. It supports both maximization and minimization of objective ...

We show how the simplex algorithm can be tailored to the linear programming relaxation of pairwise energy minimization with binary variables. A special structure formed by basic and nonbasic variables ...

The Nelder-Mead simplex method for function minimization is a "direct" method requiring no derivatives. The objective function is evaluated at the vertices of a simplex, and movement is away from the ...

The problem of distributing gas through a network of pipelines is formulated as a cost minimization subject to nonlinear flow-pressure relations, material balances, and pressure bounds. The solution ...
