Methods Documentation

__call__(self, arg: ndarray[shape=(*), order='C', device='cpu'], /) → float

__call__(self, arg: collections.abc.Sequence[int], /) → float

__call__(self, arg: ndarray[shape=(*, *), order='C', device='cpu'], /) → numpy.ndarray[dtype=float64, shape=(*)]

__call__(self, arg: collections.abc.Sequence[collections.abc.Sequence[int]], /) → numpy.ndarray[dtype=float64, shape=(*)]

Overloaded function.

1. __call__(self, arg: ndarray[shape=(*), order='C', device='cpu'], /) -> float

2. __call__(self, arg: collections.abc.Sequence[int], /) -> float

   Evaluate the problem.

   x: list

   the search point to evaluate. It must be a 1-dimensional array/list whose length matches search space’s dimensionality

   float

   The evaluated search point

3. __call__(self, arg: ndarray[shape=(*, *), order='C', device='cpu'], /) -> numpy.ndarray[dtype=float64, shape=(*)]

4. __call__(self, arg: collections.abc.Sequence[collections.abc.Sequence[int]], /) -> numpy.ndarray[dtype=float64, shape=(*)]

   Evaluate the problem at several search points.

   x: list[list]

   the search points to evaluate, one per row. It must be a 2-dimensional array/list whose rows’ length matches search space’s dimensionality

   numpy.ndarray

   The objective values of the search points: a new float64 array with one value per row
