Initializing help system before first use

KNITRO_PARAM_NCVX_QCQP_INIT, XKTR_PARAM_NCVX_QCQP_INIT

Description
Specifies the initialization strategy used for non-convex QPs and QCQPs.
Type
Integer
Topic area
Values
-1 
(auto) Knitro will automatically determine the strategy.
0 
(none) No special initialization strategy is used.
1 
(linear) Initialize by solving a linear relaxation.
2 
(hybrid) Initialize by solving a hybrid formulation.
3 
(penalty) Initialize by solving a penalty formulation.
4 
(cvxquad) Initialize by solving a convex quadratic relaxation.
Default value
-1
Note
These strategies may be more likely to cause Knitro to find global or better local solutions on non-convex quadratic programs (QPs) or non-convex quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs).
