Optimisation

The Genetic Algorithm Utility Library (or, GAUL for short) is a flexible programming library designed to aid in the development of applications that use genetic, or evolutionary, algorithms. It provides data structures and functions for handling and manipulation of the data required for serial... Platforms: C and C plus plus

SVMs are a bit tricky. In this case, we show a linear SVM and illustrate its behaviour on some 2D data. This should be great for getting to grips with maximising geometric margins, support vectors, and the optimisation involved in computing an optimal separating hyperplane.Data can be generated...

This is an extension of my single rotor analysis code.The function is based on the mathematical treatment of rotating rotors in "Principles of Helicopter Aerodynamics" by Dr. J.Gordon Leishman The numerical method does this by using Blade Element Momentum Theory (BEMT) to calculate the inflow...

This code optimises the parameters for the term structure of volatility (TSOV) applied to historical forward curves - see discussion in Harris in reference 1 below. TSOVs avaible are: TermType - 1 = sigma = A exp (-CT) - 2 = sigma = A exp (-CT) + D - 3 = sigma = (A + BT) exp (-CT) + DRequired... Platforms: Matlab

eolfixer is a Python script that goes through a directory structure and fixes non-native EOL endings in non-binary files. So the windows line endings are gone if you work on Linux. Numerous people forget to set native EOL line endings by default in their main svn config file (see zope's svn... Platforms: *nix
