[RESOLVED] Rapidminer Linear Programming

mrmikev

My colleague has a set of calculations in Excel. The calculations include usage of the Solver Excel plugin to evaluate a max/min of a function with the certain accuracy by adjusting a specified set of parameters. I'd like to reproduce his Excel Solver usage in Rapidminer.  

What operators are available to facilitate linear programming?  Are there plugins to facilitate interfacing with NEOS? http://neos-guide.org/

Any direction would be helpful and thanks in advance!

I don't think there is any native operators in RM to do Linear Programming. Your only chance is an external program like R, Python or Octave. There are extensions to communicate with these programs.

Thanks for the note!
