pyscsopt 0.1.51

A Python library for self-concordant smooth optimization (Python port of SelfConcordantSmoothOptimization.jl)

pySCSOpt: Self-Concordant Smooth Optimization in Python

This package is a Python port of most parts of the Julia package SelfConcordantSmoothOptimization.jl. It includes:

• ProxLQNSCORE a limited-memory version of ProxQNSCORE of the Julia package
• ProxGGNSCORE
• ProxNSCORE
• Smoothing and regularization (utility) functions

Installation

Install with pip:

pip install pyscsopt

Usage

See the examples/ directory for a usage example.

For more information on how to set up problems (especially choosing regularizers), see Julia's SelfConcordantSmoothOptimization.jl.

Tests

Run tests with:

pytest pyscsopt/test/
