Sequential model-based optimization toolbox. Forked to fix a deprecation for NumPy>1.24.
Project description
Scikit-Optimize
Scikit-Optimize, or skopt, is a simple and efficient library to minimize (very) expensive and noisy black-box functions. It implements several methods for sequential model-based optimization. skopt aims to be accessible and easy to use in many contexts.
The library is built on top of NumPy, SciPy and Scikit-Learn.
We do not perform gradient-based optimization. For gradient-based optimization algorithms look at scipy.optimize here.
Approximated objective function after 50 iterations of gp_minimize. Plot made using skopt.plots.plot_objective.

Install
scikit-optimize requires
Python >= 3.6
NumPy (>= 1.13.3)
SciPy (>= 0.19.1)
joblib (>= 0.11)
scikit-learn >= 0.20
matplotlib >= 2.0.0
You can install the latest release with:
pip install scikit-optimize
This installs an essential version of scikit-optimize. To install scikit-optimize with plotting functionality, you can instead do:
pip install 'scikit-optimize[plots]'
This will install matplotlib along with scikit-optimize.
In addition there is a conda-forge package of scikit-optimize:
conda install -c conda-forge scikit-optimize
Using conda-forge is probably the easiest way to install scikit-optimize on Windows.
Getting started
Find the minimum of the noisy function f(x) over the range -2 < x < 2 with skopt:
import numpy as np
from skopt import gp_minimize
def f(x):
return (np.sin(5 * x[0]) * (1 - np.tanh(x[0] ** 2)) +
np.random.randn() * 0.1)
res = gp_minimize(f, [(-2.0, 2.0)])
For more control over the optimization loop you can use the skopt.Optimizer class:
from skopt import Optimizer
opt = Optimizer([(-2.0, 2.0)])
for i in range(20):
suggested = opt.ask()
y = f(suggested)
opt.tell(suggested, y)
print('iteration:', i, suggested, y)
Read our introduction to bayesian optimization and the other examples.
Development
The library is still experimental and under heavy development. Checkout the next milestone for the plans for the next release or look at some easy issues to get started contributing.
The development version can be installed through:
git clone https://github.com/scikit-optimize/scikit-optimize.git cd scikit-optimize pip install -e.
Run all tests by executing pytest in the top level directory.
To only run the subset of tests with short run time, you can use pytest -m 'fast_test' (pytest -m 'slow_test' is also possible). To exclude all slow running tests try pytest -m 'not slow_test'.
This is implemented using pytest attributes. If a tests runs longer than 1 second, it is marked as slow, else as fast.
All contributors are welcome!
Making a Release
The release procedure is almost completely automated. By tagging a new release travis will build all required packages and push them to PyPI. To make a release create a new issue and work through the following checklist:
update the version tag in __init__.py
update the version tag mentioned in the README
check if the dependencies in setup.py are valid or need unpinning
check that the doc/whats_new/v0.X.rst is up to date
did the last build of master succeed?
create a new release
ping conda-forge
Before making a release we usually create a release candidate. If the next release is v0.X then the release candidate should be tagged v0.Xrc1 in __init__.py. Mark a release candidate as a “pre-release” on GitHub when you tag it.
Commercial support
Feel free to get in touch if you need commercial support or would like to sponsor development. Resources go towards paying for additional work by seasoned engineers and researchers.
