BlueM.Opt
BlueM.Opt is an optimization framework that can be coupled with an arbitrary simulation software. It can be used to optimize or carry out a sensitivity analysis for any parameters in a Talsim dataset while evaluating the simulation results against flexibly definable objective functions.
The source code and the latest release version are available at https://github.com/bluemodel/BlueM.Opt/
How to use BlueM.Opt with Talsim::
- Export the Talsim dataset as an ASCII dataset
- Create the required BlueM.Opt input files
- In the EXT file, make sure that
PATHLocal
contains the absolute path to the required input time series. - In the ALL file, set
ObjectiveFunction=N
. - Start BlueM.Opt and optimize or start a sensitivity analysis.
Limitations:
- The simulation time period must be fixed (i.e. scenario simulations with varying simulation time periods are not supported).
