Bound multipliers initialization method

Type : Selection

Range : The settings listed below

Default : Constant

This option defines how the iterates for the bound multipliers are initialized. Possible values are:

• Constant

• Mu-based

If ‘Constant’ is chosen then all bound multipliers are initialized to the value of the option Initial Value for Bound Multipliers . If ‘Mu-based’ is chosen then each value is initialized to the the value of the option Barrier Parameter Initial Value divided by the corresponding slack variable. This latter option might be useful if the starting point is close to the optimal solution.
