Atomistic Global Optimziation X is a framework for structure optimization in materials science.

Atomistic Global Optimization X (AGOX)

AGOX is a package for global optimization of atomic system using e.g. the energy calculated from density functional theory as the objective function. AGOX interfaces with the Atomistic Simulation Environment (ASE) and as such supports any of calculators in ASE as objectives for optimization.

AGOX is built to be flexible, consisting of modules that can be put together to create an optimization algorithm, from simple random searches to Bayesian searches guided by a surrogate model and many more.
