opytimizer.core.optimizer

Optimizer.

class opytimizer.core.optimizer.Optimizer

An Optimizer class that holds meta-heuristics-related properties and methods.

__init__() → None

Initialization method.

algorithm

Algorithm’s name.

Type:str

built

Indicates whether the optimizer is built.

params

Key-value parameters.

build(params: Dict[str, Any]) → None

Builds the object by creating its parameters.

Parameters:params – Key-value parameters to the meta-heuristic.

compile(space: opytimizer.core.space.Space) → None

Compiles additional information that is used by this optimizer.

This method is called before the optimization procedure and makes sure that the additional variable is available as a property.

evaluate(space: opytimizer.core.space.Space, function: opytimizer.core.function.Function) → None

Evaluates the search space according to the objective function.

If you need a specific evaluate method, please re-implement it on child’s class.

Also, note that function only accept arguments that are found on Opytimizer class.

Parameters:

• space – A Space object that will be evaluated.
• function – A Function object serving as an objective function.

update() → None

Updates the agents’ position array.

As each child has a different procedure of update, you will need to implement it directly on its class.

Also, note that function only accept arguments that are found on Opytimizer class.
