fmin

modcma.modularcmaes.fmin(func, dim, maxfun=None, **kwargs)

Minimize a function using the modular CMA-ES.

Parameters

  • func (callable) – The objective function to be minimized.

  • dim (int) – The dimensionality of the problem

  • maxfun (int = None) – Maximum number of function evaluations to make.

  • **kwargs – These are directly passed into the instance of ModularCMAES, in this manner parameters can be specified for the optimizer.

Returns

  • xopt – The variables which minimize the function during this run

  • fopt – The value of function at found xopt

  • evals – The number of evaluations performed
