SciPyOptimizer
class SciPyOptimizer(method, options=None, max_evals_grouped=1, **kwargs)
Bases: qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.optimizer.Optimizer
A general Qiskit Optimizer wrapping scipy.optimize.minimize.
For further detail, please refer to https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.optimize.minimize.html
Parameters
- method (
Union[str,Callable]) – Type of solver. - options (
Optional[Dict[str,Any]]) – A dictionary of solver options. - kwargs – additional kwargs for scipy.optimize.minimize.
- max_evals_grouped (
int) – Max number of default gradient evaluations performed simultaneously.
Methods
get_support_level
SciPyOptimizer.get_support_level()
Return support level dictionary
gradient_num_diff
static SciPyOptimizer.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
minimize
SciPyOptimizer.minimize(fun, x0, jac=None, bounds=None)
Minimize the scalar function.
Parameters
- fun (
Callable[[Union[float,ndarray]],float]) – The scalar function to minimize. - x0 (
Union[float,ndarray]) – The initial point for the minimization. - jac (
Optional[Callable[[Union[float,ndarray]],Union[float,ndarray]]]) – The gradient of the scalar functionfun. - bounds (
Optional[List[Tuple[float,float]]]) – Bounds for the variables offun. This argument might be ignored if the optimizer does not support bounds.
Return type
Returns
The result of the optimization, containing e.g. the result as attribute x.
print_options
SciPyOptimizer.print_options()
Print algorithm-specific options.
set_max_evals_grouped
SciPyOptimizer.set_max_evals_grouped(limit)
Set max evals grouped
set_options
SciPyOptimizer.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.
wrap_function
static SciPyOptimizer.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
