optimization tool for PHYSics based on Bayesian Optimization

Project description

optimization tools for PHYsics based on Bayesian Optimization ( PHYSBO )

Bayesian optimization has been proven as an effective tool in accelerating scientific discovery. A standard implementation (e.g., scikit-learn), however, can accommodate only small training data. PHYSBO is highly scalable due to an efficient protocol that employs Thompson sampling, random feature maps, one-rank Cholesky update and automatic hyperparameter tuning. Technical features are described in COMBO's document and PHYSBO's report (open access). PHYSBO was developed based on COMBO for academic use.

Document

Required Packages

  • Python >= 3.6
    • No longer tested with Python 3.6
  • NumPy < 2.0.0
  • SciPy

Install

  • From PyPI (recommended)
python3 -m pip install physbo
  • From source (for developers)
    1. Update pip (>= 19.0)

      python3 -m pip install -U pip
      
    2. Download or clone the github repository

      git clone https://github.com/issp-center-dev/PHYSBO
      
    3. Install via pip

      # ./PHYSBO is the root directory of PHYSBO
      # pip install options such as --user are avaiable
      
      python3 -m pip install ./PHYSBO
      
    4. Note: Do not import physbo at the root directory of the repository because import physbo does not try to import the installed PHYSBO but one in the repository, which includes Cython codes not compiled.

Uninstall

python3 -m pip uninstall physbo

Usage

'examples/simple.py' is a simple example.

Data repository

A tutorial and a dataset of a paper about PHYSBO can be found in PHYSBO Gallery.
