qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.IMFIL
class IMFIL(maxiter=1000)
IMplicit FILtering algorithm.
Implicit filtering is a way to solve bound-constrained optimization problems for which derivatives are not available. In comparison to methods that use interpolation to reconstruct the function and its higher derivatives, implicit filtering builds upon coordinate search followed by interpolation to get an approximate gradient.
Uses skquant.opt installed with pip install scikit-quant. For further detail, please refer to https://github.com/scikit-quant/scikit-quant and https://qat4chem.lbl.gov/software.
Parameters
maxiter (int) – Maximum number of function evaluations.
Raises
MissingOptionalLibraryError – scikit-quant not installed
__init__
__init__(maxiter=1000)
Parameters
maxiter (int) – Maximum number of function evaluations.

bounds_support_level
Returns bounds support level
get_support_level
get_support_level()
Returns support level dictionary.
gradient_num_diff
static gradient_num_diff(x_center, f, epsilon, max_evals_grouped=1)
We compute the gradient with the numeric differentiation in the parallel way, around the point x_center.
Parameters
- x_center (ndarray) – point around which we compute the gradient
- f (func) – the function of which the gradient is to be computed.
- epsilon (float) – the epsilon used in the numeric differentiation.
- max_evals_grouped (int) – max evals grouped
Returns
the gradient computed
Return type
grad
gradient_support_level
Returns gradient support level
initial_point_support_level
Returns initial point support level
is_bounds_ignored
Returns is bounds ignored
is_bounds_required
Returns is bounds required
is_bounds_supported
Returns is bounds supported
is_gradient_ignored
Returns is gradient ignored
is_gradient_required
Returns is gradient required
is_gradient_supported
Returns is gradient supported
is_initial_point_ignored
Returns is initial point ignored
is_initial_point_required
Returns is initial point required
is_initial_point_supported
Returns is initial point supported
optimize
optimize(num_vars, objective_function, gradient_function=None, variable_bounds=None, initial_point=None)
Runs the optimization.
print_options
print_options()
Print algorithm-specific options.
set_max_evals_grouped
set_max_evals_grouped(limit)
Set max evals grouped
set_options
set_options(**kwargs)
Sets or updates values in the options dictionary.
The options dictionary may be used internally by a given optimizer to pass additional optional values for the underlying optimizer/optimization function used. The options dictionary may be initially populated with a set of key/values when the given optimizer is constructed.
Parameters
kwargs (dict) – options, given as name=value.
setting
Return setting
wrap_function
static wrap_function(function, args)
Wrap the function to implicitly inject the args at the call of the function.
Parameters
- function (func) – the target function
- args (tuple) – the args to be injected
Returns
wrapper
Return type
