Software Description
NEWUOAs A MATLAB solver for large-scale unconstrained derivative-free optimization that builds low-dimensional subspaces from approximate gradients and solves each subproblem with NEWUOA.
PRIMA A modern reference implementation of Powell’s derivative-free optimization methods for general nonlinear problems, available in Fortran, C, Python, MATLAB, and Julia.
COBYQA A derivative-free trust-region SQP solver for unconstrained and constrained nonlinear optimization using quadratic models built from function values.
BDS A MATLAB package for unconstrained derivative-free optimization based on blockwise direct-search methods.
OptiProfiler An open-source Python and MATLAB platform focused on benchmarking derivative-free optimization solvers across configurable problem libraries, with baseline comparisons and reproducible performance and data profiles.
OptiProfiler Evolve A Python system that uses coding agents and OptiProfiler benchmarks to evolve a derivative-free optimization solver for a fixed problem-library experiment, reserving hidden problems for final evaluation.
