Software suggestions welcome. Though I'm talking about animation in general, I'm also thinking of how plots change when parameters are modified, and so forth. |

I've created videos with ffmpeg before. Name all your images something like frame-%d.png and encode with ffmpeg. See this FAQ entry for more info. If you just want to visualize your images, imagemagick has an "animate" command that's also useful. |

For plots with changing parameters you can use Mathematica's Animate command, for instance Animate[Plot[f(x,a),{x,0,1}],{a,0,1}] gives you an animation of plot of f(x,a) as a goes from 0 to 1 You can more general animations too. For example, here is a Mathematica-created animation of loopy belief propagation in a grid and here's animation of MCMC sampling in a hardcore model mathematica is the way to go, hey. Thanks for sharing. Those are great animations.

I agree for mathematica, it is the greatest. And with so many cool examples for manipulate in the demos project. For a free alternative to mathematica's manipulate, sage's interact looks really promising, although not as powerful yet.

Animated GIF is underrated and lossless. You can use ImageMagick, and see examples of results for multidimensional scaling. |

I will add Processing but it isn't specific to any optimization problem. is there a processing equivalent for non-java use? Such as python? just wondering.
