C/C++ Minpack
This is a C version of the minpack minimization package. It has been derived from the fortran code using f2c and some limited manual editing. Note that you need to link against libf2c to use this version of minpack. Extern "C" linkage permits the package routines to be called from C++. Check ftp://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/f2c for the latest f2c version. For general minpack info and test programs, see the accompanying readme.txt and http://www.netlib.org/minpack/.
Type make
to compile and make install
to install in /usr/local
or modify the makefile to suit your needs.
This software has been tested on a RedHat 7.3 Linux machine - usual 'use at your own risk' warnings apply.

version 1.3.3 (04/02/2014):
- Add documentation and examples abouts how to add box constraints to the variables.
- continuous integration https://travis-ci.org/devernay/cminpack
-
version 1.3.2 (27/10/2013):
- Minor change in the CMake build: also set
SOVERSION
.
- Minor change in the CMake build: also set
-
version 1.3.1 (02/10/2013):
- Fix CUDA examples compilation, and remove non-free files.
-
version 1.3.0 (09/06/2012):
- Optionally use LAPACK and CBLAS in lmpar, qrfac, and qrsolv. Added
make lapack
to build the LAPACK-based cminpack and "make checklapack" to test it (results of the test may depend on the underlying LAPACK and BLAS implementations). On 64-bits architectures, the preprocessor symbol__LP64__
must be defined (seecminpackP.h
) if the LAPACK library uses the LP64 interface (i.e. 32-bits integer, vhereas the ILP interface uses 64 bits integers).
- Optionally use LAPACK and CBLAS in lmpar, qrfac, and qrsolv. Added
-
version 1.2.2 (16/05/2012):
- Update Makefiles and documentation (see "Using CMinpack" above) for easier building and testing.
-
version 1.2.1 (15/05/2012):
- The library can now be built as double, float or half
versions. Standard tests in the "examples" directory can now be
lauched using
make check
(to run common tests, including against the float version),make checkhalf
(to test the half version) andmake checkfail
(to run all the tests, even those that fail).
- The library can now be built as double, float or half
versions. Standard tests in the "examples" directory can now be
lauched using
-
version 1.2.0 (14/05/2012):
- Added original FORTRAN sources for better testing (type
make -C fortran
, thenmake -C examples
and follow the instructions). Added driver testslmsdrv
,chkdrv
,hyjdrv
,hybdrv
.make -C examples alltest
will run all possible test combinations (make sure you have gfortran installed).
- Added original FORTRAN sources for better testing (type
-
version 1.1.5 (04/05/2012):
- cminpack now works in CUDA, thanks to Jordi Bataller Mascarell, type
make -C cuda
(be careful, though: this is a straightforward port from C, and each problem is solved using a single thread). cminpack can now also be compiled with single-precision floating point computation (define__cminpack_real__
to float when compiling and using the library). Fix cmake support forCMINPACK_LIB_INSTALL_DIR
. Update the reference files for tests.
- cminpack now works in CUDA, thanks to Jordi Bataller Mascarell, type

lmder
,lmdif
,lmstr
,lmder1,
lmdif1,
lmstr1,
lmpar,
qrfac,
qrsolv,
fdjac2,
chkder`) to use C-style indices.
- Translated all the Levenberg-Marquardt code (

strnstr()
tostrstr()
ingenf77tests.c
.
- Minor fix: Change non-standard
-
version 1.1.2 (07/01/2011):
- Fix Windows DLL building (David Graeff) and document covar in cminpack.h.
-
version 1.1.1 (04/12/2010):
- Complete rewrite of the C functions (without trailing underscore in the function name). Using the original FORTRAN code, the original algorithms structure was recovered, and many goto's were converted to if...then...else. The code should now be both more readable and easier to optimize, both for humans and for compilers. Added lmddrv and lmfdrv test drivers, which test a lot of difficult functions (these functions are explained in Testing Unconstrained Optimization Software by Moré et al.). Also added the pkg-config files to the cmake build, as well as an "uninstall" target, contributed by Geoffrey Biggs.
