CVXOPT Description

A free Python based tool for convex optimization CVXOPT is a free software package for convex optimization based on the Python programming language. CVXOPT can be used with the interactive Python interpreter, on the command line by executing Python scripts, or integrated in other software via Python extension modules. CVXOPTsmain purpose is to make the development of software for convex optimization applications straightforward by building on Python's extensive standard library and on the strengths of Python as a high-level programming language. Requirements: · Python 2.5 or later What's New in This Release: · efficient Python classes for dense and sparse matrices (real and complex), with Python indexing and slicing and overloaded operations for matrix arithmetic · an interface to most of the double-precision real and complex BLAS · an interface to LAPACK routines for solving linear equations and least-squares problems, matrix factorizations (LU, Cholesky, LDL and QR), symmetric eigenvalue and singular value decomposition, and Schur factorization · an interface to the fast Fourier transform routines from FFTW · interfaces to the sparse LU and Cholesky solvers from UMFPACK and CHOLMOD · routines for linear, second-order cone, and semidefinite programming problems · routines for nonlinear convex optimization · interfaces to the linear programming solver in GLPK, the semidefinite programming solver in DSDP5, and the linear, quadratic and second-order cone programming solvers in MOSEK · a modeling tool for specifying convex piecewise-linear optimization problems. (This has been superseded by the more powerful CVXMOD package.)
