Variable-class: The Variable class.

Description

This class represents an optimization variable.

Usage

Variable(rows = NULL, cols = NULL, name = NA_character_, ...)
# S4 method for Variable
as.character(x)
# S4 method for Variable
name(x)
# S4 method for Variable
value(object)
# S4 method for Variable
grad(object)
# S4 method for Variable
variables(object)
# S4 method for Variable
canonicalize(object)

Arguments

rows

The number of rows in the variable.

cols

The number of columns in the variable.

name

(Optional) A character string representing the name of the variable.

...

(Optional) Additional attribute arguments. See Leaf for details.

x, object

A Variable object.

Methods (by generic)

• name(Variable): The name of the variable.

• value(Variable): Get the value of the variable.

• grad(Variable): The sub/super-gradient of the variable represented as a sparse matrix.

• variables(Variable): Returns itself as a variable.

• canonicalize(Variable): The canonical form of the variable.

Slots

dim

The dimensions of the variable.

name

(Optional) A character string representing the name of the variable.

Examples

x <- Variable(3, name = "x0") ## 3-int variable
y <- Variable(3, 3, name = "y0") # Matrix variable
as.character(y)
id(y)
is_nonneg(x)
is_nonpos(x)
size(y)
name(y)
value(y) <- matrix(1:9, nrow = 3)
value(y)
grad(y)
variables(y)
canonicalize(y)
