Solve the optimization problem for the sample allocation by numerical optimization in the case of sampling estimator targeting the standard_deviation.
Alias: none
Argument(s): none
Employ numerical optimization to solve the optimization problem for finding the optimal sample allocation when targeting the standard deviation. This option needs NPSOL (preferred choice) or OPTPP (alternative choice) installed.
Default Behavior "off"
The following method block
method,
model_pointer = 'HIERARCH'
multilevel_sampling
pilot_samples = 20 seed = 1237
convergence_tolerance = .01
allocation_target = standard_deviation
optimization
uses the standard deviation as sample allocation target and solves the resulting optimization problem using numerical optimization.
