Python Gekko v1.2.1

GEKKO v1.2.1 brings several new features and improvements to the Python package for machine learning and optimization of mixed-integer and differential algebraic equations. This release includes the following updates:

• Pyomo Extension and Interface
• Example Jupyter Notebook showcasing Optimization Under Uncertainty with a Gaussian Process Regression (GPR)
• The gk_solver_extension.py file has been divided into three separate files to enhance modularity and maintainability
• Solver Extension Option: The m.options.SOLVER_EXTENSION option has been modified for improved flexibility
  • 0 / GEKKO (default): Solver extension off, solve with GEKKO as usual.
  • 1 / AMPL / AMPLPY: Solver extension on, solve through amplpy, maintaining compatibility with previous versions.
  • 2 / PYOMO: Solver extension on, solve through Pyomo.
• Documentation Updates: Significant updates to the documentation

Thank you for your continued support and contributions to the GEKKO community!

Python Gekko v1.1.1

Gekko is a Python library designed for optimization of mixed-integer and differential algebraic equations. It is coupled with large-scale solvers for various types of programming, including linear, quadratic, nonlinear, and mixed integer programming (LP, QP, NLP, MILP, MINLP). Gekko is versatile and supports various modes of operation such as parameter regression, data reconciliation, real-time optimization, dynamic simulation, and nonlinear predictive control.

Primarily, Gekko functions as an object-oriented library that makes it easier to execute local solvers like APMonitor, which it uses on the backend to solve optimization problems. The library simplifies the declaration of constants, parameters, and variables, and it organizes equations and objective functions for optimization tasks. These features make Gekko a powerful tool for both educational purposes and real-world applications in fields where optimization is required【21†source】.
