Remarks: |
| 156 |
|
|
####### |
| 157 |
|
|
|
| 158 |
|
|
- Every call to simul refers to a read procedure which |
| 159 |
|
|
reads the result of an offline forward run and/or the adjoint run |
| 160 |
|
|
itmax = 0, for cold start |
| 161 |
|
|
itmax = 1, for warm start |
| 162 |
|
|
Also, at the end, x(i+1) needs to be computed and saved |
| 163 |
|
|
to be available for the offline model and adjoint run |
| 164 |
|
|
|
| 165 |
|
|
In order to achieve minimum difference between the online and offline code |
| 166 |
|
|
xdiff(i+1) is stored to file at the end of an (offline) iteration, |
| 167 |
|
|
but recomputed identically at the beginning of the next iteration. |
| 168 |
|
|
|
| 169 |
|
|
2. Number of simulations |
| 170 |
|
|
------------------------------------------------- |
| 171 |
|
|
|
| 172 |
|
|
- nfunc: controls the maximum number of safeguarded simulations |
| 173 |
|
|
|
| 174 |
|
|
Summary: From one iteration to the next the descent direction changes. |
| 175 |
|
|
The updated control used as input for these safeguarded simulations uses the same |
| 176 |
|
|
descent direction, but different step sizes. |
| 177 |
|
|
|
| 178 |
|
|
In detail: |
| 179 |
|
|
From one iteration to the next the descent direction dd changes using |
| 180 |
|
|
the result for the adjoint vector gg of the previous iteration. |
| 181 |
|
|
In lsline the updated control xdiff(i,1) = xx(i-1) + tact(i-1,1)*dd(i-1) serves as input for |
| 182 |
|
|
a forward and adjoint model run yielding a new gg(i,1). |
| 183 |
|
|
In general, the new solution passes the 1st and 2nd Wolfe tests |
| 184 |
|
|
so xdiff(i,1) represents the solution sought: xx(i) = xdiff(i,1). |
| 185 |
|
|
If one of the two tests fails, stepsize halving is invoked to determine |
| 186 |
|
|
a new trial step aize tact(i-1,2). |
| 187 |
|
|
If more than one function call is permitted, the new step size is used together |
| 188 |
|
|
with the "old" descent direction dd(i-1) (i.e. dd is not updated using the new gg(i)), |
| 189 |
|
|
to compute a new xdiff(i,2) = xx(i-1) + tact(i-1,2)*dd(i-1) that serves as input |
| 190 |
|
|
in a new forward and adjoint run, yielding gg(i,2). |
| 191 |
|
|
If now, both Wolfe tests are successfull, the updated solution is given by |
| 192 |
|
|
xx(i) = xdiff(i,2) = xx(i-1) + tact(i-1,2)*dd(i-1). |
| 193 |
|
|
|
| 194 |
|
|
3. Double-usage of fields dd and xdiff |
| 195 |
|
|
-------------------------------------- |
| 196 |
|
|
|
| 197 |
|
|
In order to save memory both the fields dd and xdiff have a double usage. |
| 198 |
|
|
|
| 199 |
|
|
- xdiff: in lsopt_top: used as x(i) - x(i-1) for Hessian update |
| 200 |
|
|
in lsline: intermediate result for control update x = x + tact*dd |
| 201 |
|
|
|
| 202 |
|
|
- dd : in lsopt_top, lsline: descent vector, dd = -gg & hessupd |
| 203 |
|
|
in dgscale: intermediate result to compute new preconditioner |
| 204 |
|
|
|
| 205 |
|
|
4. Notice for user of old code |
| 206 |
|
|
------------------------------ |
| 207 |
|
|
|
| 208 |
|
|
Three relevant changes needed to switch to new version: |
| 209 |
|
|
|
| 210 |
|
|
(i): OPWARMI file: two variables added: |
| 211 |
|
|
gnorm0 : norm of first (cold start) gradient |
| 212 |
|
|
iabsiter: total number of iterations with respect to cold start |
| 213 |
|
|
|
| 214 |
|
|
(ii): routine names that are referenced by main_lsopt.f |
| 215 |
|
|
lsoptv1 -> lsopt_top |
| 216 |
|
|
lsline1 -> lsline |
| 217 |
|
|
|
| 218 |
|
|
(iii): parameter list of lsopt_top |
| 219 |
|
|
logical loffline included |
| 220 |
|

|
######################## |
| 223 |
|
|
|
| 224 |
|
|
The optimization is controlled by a set of parameters |
| 225 |
|
|
provided through the standard input file data.optim, |
| 226 |
|
|
which is generated within the job script. |
| 227 |
|
|
|
| 228 |
|
|
NUPDATE : max. no. of update pairs (gg(i)-gg(i-1), xx(i)-xx(i-1)) |
| 229 |
|
|
to be stored in OPWARMD to estimate Hessian |
| 230 |
|
|
[pair of current iter. is stored in (2*jmax+2, 2*jmax+3) |
| 231 |
|
|
jmax must be > 0 to access these entries] |
| 232 |
|
|
Presently NUPDATE must be > 0 |
| 233 |
|
|
(i.e. iteration without reference to previous |
| 234 |
|
|
iterations through OPWARMD has not been tested) |
| 235 |
|
|
EPSX : relative precision on xx bellow which xx should not be improved |
| 236 |
|
|
EPSG : relative precision on gg below which optimization is considered successful |
| 237 |
|
|
IPRINT : controls verbose (>=1) or non-verbose output |
| 238 |
|
|
NUMITER : always 1 |
| 239 |
|
|
ITER_NUM : index of new restart file to be created (not necessarily = NUMITER!) |
| 240 |
|
|
NFUNC : max. no. of safeguarded simulations |
| 241 |
|
|
(must be > 0) |
| 242 |
|
|
is used if step size tact is interpolated; |
| 243 |
|
|
in this case, if NFUNC > 1, a new simulation is performed with |
| 244 |
|
|
same gradient but "improved" step size |
| 245 |
|
|
FC : first guess cost function value |
| 246 |
|
|
FMIN : not used |
| 247 |
|
|
|
| 248 |
|
