piglot.optimisers.random_search.PureRandomSearch

class PureRandomSearch(objective: Objective, sampling='uniform', seed=1)[source]

Bases: ScalarOptimiser

Pure Random Search optimiser.

Three sampling methods for generating random numbers are available: - Uniform distribution. - Normal distribution, centered around the best value, and with decreasing standard deviation throughout the iterative process. - Sampling based on the Sobol sequence (requires scipy >= 1.7).

Methods

_optimise(self, func, n_dim, n_iter, bound, init_shot):

Solves the optimization problem

Methods

optimise

Optimiser for the outside world.
