Evolutionary optimisation

[Atabarezz]

It seems that version 10.6 (still in beta) will have easy to use linear programming tool... We'll be able to allocate assets optimally, optimize our marketing decisions by inputting the predictions we had with predictive tools etc.

But when it comes to Non-linear models what happens? The idea is to add Alteryx designer an evolutionary optimization capability as well...

I've used a similar tool in excel which was very useful called Evolver; http://www.palisade.com/evolver/ It will be awesome to see that in the coming versions...

To note that one optimisation method does not rule them all and evolutionary algorithms are the slowest probably,

But I believe it will enable us to optimize hyperparameters of our models and greatly get better results...

Hi, I would like to upvote this idea!

In the manufacturing industry, more and more use cases involve beyond just the simple Linear Programming. Having options that are similar to Evolutionary LP or GRG Nonlinear would be great (without having the need for the user to create extra custom code with the R or Python tool).

Best,

MU

Would love to upvote this brilliant idea!

thanks guys for the support it's been 3 years since the idea... KNIME the competitior already added this to their extentions... but not Alteryx yet!
