Detailed Description

A goal is a term in the cost functional to be minimized, or a set of endpoint constraints that must lie within provided bounds.

Goals depend on the phase's initial and final states and controls, and optionally on the integral of a quantity over the phase. Not all goals support endpoint constraint mode; see getSupportsEndpointConstraint(). If a goal does support endpoint constraint mode, then the default mode is available via getMode(). Use endpoint constraint mode if you require the goal to be met strictly and do not want to allow a trade-off between this goal and other goals. The calculation of the goal may differ between cost and endpoint constraint modes; cost mode may require that outputs are squared, for example.

Stage dependency

Some goals require less of IntegrandInput and GoalInput than others. To ensure goals are computed efficiently, goals can specify a stage dependency, which tells solvers what to do when preparing IntegrandInput and GoalInput. Here are the expectations for each SimTK::Stage:

  • SimTK::Stage::Topology: the time field of IntegrandInput and initial_time and final_time fields of GoalInput are available.
  • SimTK::Stage::Model: controls fields of IntegrandInput and GoalInput are available.
  • SimTK::Stage::Instance: MocoParameters are applied to the model.
  • SimTK::Stage::Time: state variables (SimTK::State::getY(), etc.) are available, and SimTK::Stage::getTime() is updated.
  • SimTK::Stage::Position: state, initial_state, and final_state can be used to compute position-dependent quantities.
  • SimTK::Stage::Velocity: state, initial_state, and final_state can be used to compute velocity-dependent quantities.
  • SimTK::Stage::Dynamics: state, initial_state, and final_state can be used to compute force-dependent quantities.
  • SimTK::Stage::Acceleration: state, initial_state, and final_state can be used to compute acceleration-dependent quantities, such as body accelerations and joint reactions.

Scale factors

Goals may include an option to add scale factors to the MocoProblem using appendScaleFactor(), which takes a MocoScaleFactor object for its argument. A copy of this component is added to the Model internal to MocoProblemRep and its property value is optimized via a MocoParameter. Scale factor usage is specific to each MocoGoal (if used at all).

For developers
Every time the problem is solved, a copy of this goal is used. An individual instance of a goal is only ever used in a single problem. Therefore, there is no need to clear cache variables that you create in initializeImpl(). Also, information stored in this goal does not persist across multiple solves.
Examples:
exampleSlidingMassAdvanced.cpp.

◆ calcDuration()

double OpenSim::MocoGoal::calcDuration ( const GoalInput input) const
protected

Calculate the duration of the phase.

◆ calcGoal()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::calcGoal ( const GoalInput input,
SimTK::Vector &  goal 
) const
inline

In cost mode, the returned cost includes the weight, and the elements of the returned vector should be summed by the caller to obtain the total cost.

In endpoint constraint mode, each element of the vector is a different scalar equation to enforce as a constraint. The length of the returned vector is getNumOutputs().

) const
inlineprotectedvirtual

You may need to realize the state to the stage required for your calculations.

Do NOT realize to a stage higher than the goal's stage dependency; doing so will cause an exception to be thrown. The Lagrange multipliers for kinematic constraints are not available.

◆ clone()

MocoGoal* OpenSim::MocoGoal::clone ( ) const
overridepure virtual

Create a new heap-allocated copy of the concrete object to which this Object refers.

It is up to the caller to delete the returned object when no longer needed. Every concrete object deriving from Object implements this pure virtual method automatically, via the declaration macro it invokes (e.g., OpenSim_DECLARE_CONCRETE_OBJECT()). Note that the concrete class overrides modify the return type to be a pointer to the concrete object; that still overrides the base class method because the return type is covariant with (that is, derives from) Object.

Implements OpenSim::Object.

std::vector<MocoBounds> OpenSim::MocoGoal::getEndpointConstraintBounds ( ) const
inline

Get the vector of the endpoint constraint bounds for this MocoGoal.

Note: the return value is constructed fresh on every call from the internal property. Avoid repeated calls to this function.

◆ getInputControlIndexMap()

std::unordered_map<std::string, int> OpenSim::MocoGoal::getInputControlIndexMap ( ) const

This map will only include Input controls associated with InputControllers added by the user (i.e., not ActuatorInputController).

Precondition
initializeOnModel() has been invoked and a ControlDistributor is available in the model.

◆ getInputControls()

const SimTK::Vector& OpenSim::MocoGoal::getInputControls ( const SimTK::State &  state) const

Get the vector of all InputController controls.

This includes both controls from InputControllers added by the user and controls from the ActuatorInputController added by MocoProblemRep.

Precondition
initializeOnModel() has been invoked and a ControlDistributor is available in the model.

◆ getMode()

Mode OpenSim::MocoGoal::getMode ( ) const
inline

◆ getModeAsString()

std::string OpenSim::MocoGoal::getModeAsString ( ) const
inline

This returns the default mode of the goal, unless the user overrode the default using setMode().

◆ getModeIsCost()

bool OpenSim::MocoGoal::getModeIsCost ( ) const
inline

◆ getModeIsEndpointConstraint()

bool OpenSim::MocoGoal::getModeIsEndpointConstraint ( ) const
inline

inlineprotected

For use within virtual function implementations.

◆ getNumIntegrals()

int OpenSim::MocoGoal::getNumIntegrals ( ) const
inline

Get the number of integrals required by this cost.

This returns either 0 (for a strictly-endpoint cost) or 1.

Precondition(s):
initializeOnModel() has been invoked.

inline

Get the length of the return value of calcGoal().

◆ getScaleFactors()

std::vector<MocoScaleFactor> OpenSim::MocoGoal::getScaleFactors ( ) const
inline

Note: the return value is constructed fresh on every call from the internal property. Avoid repeated calls to this function.

◆ getStageDependency()

SimTK::Stage OpenSim::MocoGoal::getStageDependency ( ) const
inline

Obtain the stage that this goal depends on.

Solvers can use this to more efficiently decide how to set the IntegrandInput and GoalInput. See the MocoGoal class description for details about the different stages. The stage dependency is the same for both modes of the goal (cost and endpoint constraint).

◆ getSupportsEndpointConstraint()

bool OpenSim::MocoGoal::getSupportsEndpointConstraint ( ) const
inline

Can this goal be used in endpoint constraint mode?

◆ getSupportsEndpointConstraintImpl()

◆ getWeight()

double OpenSim::MocoGoal::getWeight ( ) const
inline

◆ initializeOnModel()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::initializeOnModel ( const Model model) const
inline

Perform error checks on user input for this goal, and cache quantities needed when computing the goal value.

This function must be invoked before invoking calcIntegrand() or calcGoal().

Note
If the ControlDistributor at path "/control_distributor" added by MocoProblemRep is available in the model, this function will store a reference to it, after which getInputControlIndexMap() and getInputControls() are valid.

◆ initializeOnModelImpl()

◆ printDescription()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::printDescription ( ) const

Print the name type and mode of this goal.

In cost mode, this prints the weight.

◆ printDescriptionImpl()

◆ safeDownCast()

static MocoGoal* OpenSim::MocoGoal::safeDownCast ( OpenSim::Object obj)
inlinestatic

For use in MATLAB and Python to access the concrete class.

Example: cObj = MocoGoal.safeDownCast(obj). This is equivalent to dynamic_cast<MocoGoal*>(obj) in C++.

◆ setDivideByDisplacement()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setDivideByDisplacement ( bool  tf)
inline

Set if the goal should be divided by the displacement of the system's center of mass over the phase.

Note
Increases the stage dependency of this goal to SimTK::Stage::Position, if it is not already equal or higher.

◆ setDivideByDuration()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setDivideByDuration ( bool  tf)
inline

Set if the goal should be divided by the phase duration.

Note
Increases the stage dependency of this goal to SimTK::Stage::Topology, if it is not already equal or higher

◆ setDivideByMass()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setDivideByMass ( bool  tf)
inline

Set if the goal should be divided by the model's mass.

Note
Increases the stage dependency of this goal to SimTK::Stage::Instance, if it is not already equal or higher.

◆ setEnabled()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setEnabled ( bool  enabled)
inline

Set whether this goal is used in the problem.

◆ setEndpointConstraintBounds()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setEndpointConstraintBounds ( const std::vector< MocoBounds > &  bounds)
inline

Set the vector of endpoint constraint bounds for this MocoGoal.

This vector must have length equal to the number of outputs for this goal, otherwise an exception is thrown. This info is ignored if getSupportsEndpointConstraint() is false.

◆ setMode()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setMode ( std::string  mode)
inline

Set the mode property to either 'cost' or 'endpoint_constraint'.

This should be set before initializing. Setting to 'endpoint_constraint' if getSupportsEndpointConstraint() is false causes an exception during initializing.

◆ setRequirements()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setRequirements ( int  numIntegrals,
int  numOutputs,
SimTK::Stage  stageDependency = SimTK::Stage::Acceleration 
) const
inlineprotected

Set the number of integral terms required by this goal and the length of the vector passed into calcGoalImpl().

This must be set within initializeOnModelImpl(), otherwise an exception is thrown during initialization. The number of integrals must be either 0 or 1. The stageDependency can be set to lower stages to avoid unnecessary calculations. For example, if the goal does not depend on forces, then the solver does not need to prepare the IntegrandInput and GoalInput for force calculations. See the MocoGoal class description for help with choosing the stage dependency. If you are not sure what your stageDependency is, leave it as SimTK::Stage::Acceleration to be safe.

You must still realize to the appropriate stage within the integrand and goal functions. Setting the stageDependency to stage X does not mean that the SimTK::State is realized to stage X as a precondition of calcIntegrandImpl() and calcGoalImpl().

If solving a MocoProblem with a model user-added Controllers, the solvers will internally realize the SimTK::State to SimTK::Stage::Velocity in order to compute the control values from the model. However, you do not need to raise the stageDependency to SimTK::Stage::Velocity to access the control values in goal.

◆ setWeight()

void OpenSim::MocoGoal::setWeight ( double  weight)
inline

In cost mode, the goal is multiplied by this weight.

Use the weight to control the relative importance of terms in the cost functional. The weight is ignored (e.g., set to 1) in endpoint constraint mode.

Examples:
example2DWalking.cpp, example2DWalkingMetabolics.cpp, exampleMocoInverse.cpp, and exampleMocoTrack.cpp.
