Brute force for finding optimal value
显示 更早的评论
I have a function Say, f(x)=(1-0.5)*[(sin(x-0.25))/2]+0.5.
and x lie in range [-pi,pi], which need to be optimized such that the f(x) will be maximum. The final result f(x), after applying brute force, will be of order 1*10. How to incorporate it, using brute force?
Regards and thanks in anticipation.

Brute force is defined as trying all possible values. You have about 8*10^18 representable values in that range, so if you need to use brute force then the best you can hope for is roughly 3 months of computation (unless a gpu could be used)

There might be reason to divide a range into segment, and run fmincon() of the function confined to that segment, and the gather all of the results together. But that would not be considered brute force.

I don't understand. Your function has a single maximum at x=0.25+pi/2. Why are you talking about 10 x-values ?
Do you perhaps mean
f = @(x)(1-0.5)*sin(x-0.25)/2 + 0.5;
x = linspace(-pi,pi,10); % Choose 10 equidistant x-values
[imax,fmax] = max(f(x)); % find maximum and position under the 10 x-values
xmax = x(imax) % print out x position of maximum
