OptunaHub: A Platform for Black-Box Optimization

:link: OptunaHub | :page_with_curl: Docs | :book: Tutorials | :question: FAQ | Optuna.org

OptunaHub is a platform for black-box optimizaiton. On the basis of Optuna, a powerful and flexible black-box optimization framework, OptunaHub provides implementations of state-of-the-art optimization algorithms and visualization of optimization results for analysis. You can also publish your algorithm implementation on the platform and make it available to Optuna users around the world.

This is the repository of the optunahub Python Library to use packages published in OptunaHub. If you would like to register your package in OptunaHub, please contribute by creating a pull request to the optunahub-registry repository.

It is also available at conda-forge.

conda install -c conda-forge optunahub

Example

You only need to search for the desired function on the OptunaHub website and call the optunahub.load_module function in your code to incorporate it.

import optuna
import optunahub


def objective(trial: optuna.Trial) -> float:
  x = trial.suggest_float("x", -5, 5)
  y = trial.suggest_float("y", -5, 5)
  return x**2 + y**2


module = optunahub.load_module(package="samplers/auto_sampler")
study = optuna.create_study(sampler=module.AutoSampler())
study.optimize(objective, n_trials=10)

print(study.best_trial.value, study.best_trial.params)
