Quick Start
Define a problem:
# simple.py
import pybnb
class Simple(pybnb.Problem):
def __init__(self):
self.bounds = [0.0,1.0]
def sense(self):
return pybnb.minimize
def objective(self):
return round(self.bounds[1] - self.bounds[0], 3)
def bound(self):
return -(self.bounds[1] - self.bounds[0])**2
def save_state(self, node):
node.state = self.bounds
def load_state(self, node):
self.bounds = node.state
def branch(self):
L, U = self.bounds
mid = 0.5 * (L + U)
for l,u in [(L,mid), (mid,U)]:
child = pybnb.Node()
child.state = (l,u)
yield child
Write a solve script:
# solve_simple.py
import simple
problem = simple.Simple()
results = pybnb.solve(problem,
absolute_gap=1e-9)
Run the script:
$ mpirun -np 4 python solve_simple.py
Using non-default solver options:
- absolute_gap: 1e-09 (default: 0)
Starting branch & bound solve:
- dispatcher pid: 34902 (Ozymandias.local)
- worker processes: 3
