linear optimization using optimization toolbox and minimize array sum

6 views (last 30 days)
I had dataset of load for 7 days, 1min time interval and I want to put a threshold value. Now claculate a difference D=(load-Threshold) and this D array should be positive by taking modulus and then a array values 'V' with corresponding to the each load data to minimize the sum of array D all data. How to minimize the sum of all elements of D and find the array values of 'V'.
For example:
a = 30;
b = 150;
D = (b-a).*rand(100,1) + a; % load data
Th=110; % threshold
Diff= abs(D-TH);
Now I want to minimize the sum of "Diff" and find a corresponding vector V(100*1) vector for all values.

If you are given D and Th, then PD=abs(D-Th) is given. Then also the sum of PD is given. How do you want to minimize the sum of PD if it is already given ?

Diff= abs(D-TH);
Now I want to minimize the sum of "Diff"
Threshold = median(D)

Why do you neglect something that you want to achieve????
Wonder if you really know what you want.

Bcoz that constraint is by my misunderstanding and that is not a case in my original case
Thanks
