BinaryOptimizationAlgorithm

class pybrops.opt.algo.BinaryOptimizationAlgorithm.BinaryOptimizationAlgorithm

Bases: OptimizationAlgorithm

An abstract class for optimization algorithms optimizing in binary search spaces.

The purpose of this abstract class is to provide functionality for:

1. Optimization of objective functions in binary search spaces.

Methods

minimize

Minimize an optimization problem.

abstract minimize(prob, miscout, **kwargs)

Minimize an optimization problem.

Parameters:

• prob (BinaryProblem) – A binary problem definition object on which to optimize.

• miscout (dict) – Miscellaneous output from the constrained optimizaiont algorithm.

• kwargs (dict) – Additional keyword arguments

Returns:

out – An object containing the solution to the provided binary problem.

Return type:

BinarySolution
