The Optimization Firm

Makers of the BARON solver and the ALAMO modeling tool

[The Optimization Firm @TheOptFirm]

We're excited to introduce BAM, a deterministic data-driven global optimization solver that helps teams reduce simulation costs and find better solutions with fewer evaluations. Available now through Python, C, and Fortran APIs. Details: https://t.co/h5kaHbQMaI
