I am trying to use differential evolution to optimize availability based on cost. However, I have three unknown parameters (a, b, c) here and I can define the range using bounds. However, I want to define additional constraint as a+b+c <= 10000. I am using python to do this and I tried to use an option "args" within differential evolution but it did not work. Any information will be appreciated.
Defining the constraint using differential evolution is not an appropriate solution for the problem I have described above. For this purpose, we can use Nminimize command which has dedicated option to define constraints.
scipy.optimize.minimize(fun, x0, args=(), method=None, jac=None, hess=None, hessp=None, bounds=None, constraints=(), tol=None, callback=None, options=None)
