Optimization algorithms

In this example, we will discover the different functions of the API related to optimization algorithms.

from gemseo.api import configure_logger
from gemseo.api import get_algorithm_options_schema
from gemseo.api import get_available_opt_algorithms

configure_logger()

Out:

<RootLogger root (INFO)>

Get available optimization algorithms

The get_available_opt_algorithms() function returns the list of optimization algorithms available in GEMSEO or in external modules

print(get_available_opt_algorithms())

Out:

['NLOPT_MMA', 'NLOPT_COBYLA', 'NLOPT_SLSQP', 'NLOPT_BOBYQA', 'NLOPT_BFGS', 'NLOPT_NEWUOA', 'PDFO_COBYLA', 'PDFO_BOBYQA', 'PDFO_NEWUOA', 'PSEVEN', 'PSEVEN_FD', 'PSEVEN_MOM', 'PSEVEN_NCG', 'PSEVEN_NLS', 'PSEVEN_POWELL', 'PSEVEN_QP', 'PSEVEN_SQP', 'PSEVEN_SQ2P', 'PYMOO_GA', 'PYMOO_NSGA2', 'PYMOO_NSGA3', 'PYMOO_UNSGA3', 'PYMOO_RNSGA3', 'DUAL_ANNEALING', 'SHGO', 'DIFFERENTIAL_EVOLUTION', 'LINEAR_INTERIOR_POINT', 'REVISED_SIMPLEX', 'SIMPLEX', 'SLSQP', 'L-BFGS-B', 'TNC', 'SNOPTB']

Get options schema

For a given optimization algorithm, e.g. "NLOPT_SLSQP", we can get the options; e.g.

print(get_algorithm_options_schema("NLOPT_SLSQP"))

Out:
