The course aims to introduce students to the fundamentals of non-linear optimization. Upon successful completion of the course the student will be able to:
- understand the basic principles of nonlinear optimization problems.
- use some of the commonly used algorithms for nonlinear optimization (unconstrained and constrained).
- select the appropriate algorithm for a particular optimization problem.
|
General Competences
|
- Working independently
- Decision-making
- Adapting to new situations
- Production of free, creative and inductive thinking
- Synthesis of data and information, with the use of the necessary technology
