NLP scaling method

Type : Selection

Range : The settings listed below

Default : Gradient based

This option selects the technique used for scaling the problem internally before it is solved. Possible values are:

  • None

  • Gradient based

  • Equilibration based

Setting ‘Gradient based’ (the default) means: scale the problem so the maximum gradient at the starting point equals the value of option Maximum Gradient after NLP Scaling .

Setting ‘Equilibration based’ means: scale the problem so that first derivatives are of order 1 at random points (only available with MC19).
