Notes ----- Uses a Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm to find the minimum of function of one or more variables. This algorithm has a long history of successful use in applications. But it will usually be slower than an algorithm that uses first or second derivative information. In practice it can have poor performance in high-dimensional problems and is not robust to minimizing complicated functions. Additionally, there currently is no complete theory describing when the algorithm will successfully converge to the minimum, or how fast it will if it does. Both the ftol and xtol criteria must be met for convergence.

Parameters ---------- f : callable, ``f(x, *args)`` Objective function to be minimized. Here `x` must be a 1-D array of the variables that are to be changed in the search for a minimum, and `args` are the other (fixed) parameters of `f`. x0 : ndarray A user-supplied initial estimate of `xopt`, the optimal value of `x`. It must be a 1-D array of values. fprime : callable, ``fprime(x, *args)``, optional A function that returns the gradient of `f` at `x`. Here `x` and `args` are as described above for `f`. The returned value must be a 1-D array. Defaults to None, in which case the gradient is approximated numerically (see `epsilon`, below). args : tuple, optional Parameter values passed to `f` and `fprime`. Must be supplied whenever additional fixed parameters are needed to completely specify the functions `f` and `fprime`. gtol : float, optional Stop when the norm of the gradient is less than `gtol`. norm : float, optional Order to use for the norm of the gradient (``-np.Inf`` is min, ``np.Inf`` is max). epsilon : float or ndarray, optional Step size(s) to use when `fprime` is approximated numerically. Can be a scalar or a 1-D array. Defaults to ``sqrt(eps)``, with eps the floating point machine precision. Usually ``sqrt(eps)`` is about 1.5e-8. maxiter : int, optional Maximum number of iterations to perform. Default is ``200 * len(x0)``. full_output : bool, optional If True, return `fopt`, `func_calls`, `grad_calls`, and `warnflag` in addition to `xopt`. See the Returns section below for additional information on optional return values. disp : bool, optional If True, return a convergence message, followed by `xopt`. retall : bool, optional If True, add to the returned values the results of each iteration. callback : callable, optional An optional user-supplied function, called after each iteration. Called as ``callback(xk)``, where ``xk`` is the current value of `x0`. Returns ------- xopt : ndarray Parameters which minimize f, i.e. ``f(xopt) == fopt``. fopt : float, optional Minimum value found, f(xopt). Only returned if `full_output` is True. func_calls : int, optional The number of function_calls made. Only returned if `full_output` is True. grad_calls : int, optional The number of gradient calls made. Only returned if `full_output` is True. warnflag : int, optional Integer value with warning status, only returned if `full_output` is True. 0 : Success. 1 : The maximum number of iterations was exceeded. 2 : Gradient and/or function calls were not changing. May indicate that precision was lost, i.e., the routine did not converge. 3 : NaN result encountered. allvecs : list of ndarray, optional List of arrays, containing the results at each iteration. Only returned if `retall` is True. See Also -------- minimize : common interface to all `scipy.optimize` algorithms for unconstrained and constrained minimization of multivariate functions. It provides an alternative way to call ``fmin_cg``, by specifying ``method='CG'``. Notes ----- This conjugate gradient algorithm is based on that of Polak and Ribiere [1]_. Conjugate gradient methods tend to work better when: 1. `f` has a unique global minimizing point, and no local minima or other stationary points, 2. `f` is, at least locally, reasonably well approximated by a quadratic function of the variables, 3. `f` is continuous and has a continuous gradient, 4. `fprime` is not too large, e.g., has a norm less than 1000, 5. The initial guess, `x0`, is reasonably close to `f` 's global minimizing point, `xopt`. References ---------- .. [1] Wright & Nocedal, "Numerical Optimization", 1999, pp. 120-122.

See also -------- minimize: Interface to unconstrained minimization algorithms for multivariate functions. See the 'Powell' method in particular. Notes ----- Uses a modification of Powell's method to find the minimum of a function of N variables. Powell's method is a conjugate direction method. The algorithm has two loops. The outer loop merely iterates over the inner loop. The inner loop minimizes over each current direction in the direction set. At the end of the inner loop, if certain conditions are met, the direction that gave the largest decrease is dropped and replaced with the difference between the current estimated x and the estimated x from the beginning of the inner-loop. The technical conditions for replacing the direction of greatest increase amount to checking that 1. No further gain can be made along the direction of greatest increase from that iteration. 2. The direction of greatest increase accounted for a large sufficient fraction of the decrease in the function value from that iteration of the inner loop. References ---------- Powell M.J.D.

Uses the "brute force" method, i.e. computes the function's value at each point of a multidimensional grid of points, to find the global minimum of the function. The function is evaluated everywhere in the range with the datatype of the first call to the function, as enforced by the ``vectorize`` NumPy function. The value and type of the function evaluation returned when ``full_output=True`` are affected in addition by the ``finish`` argument (see Notes). The brute force approach is inefficient because the number of grid points increases exponentially - the number of grid points to evaluate is ``Ns ** len(x)``. Consequently, even with coarse grid spacing, even moderately sized problems can take a long time to run, and/or run into memory limitations. Parameters ---------- func : callable The objective function to be minimized. Must be in the form ``f(x, *args)``, where ``x`` is the argument in the form of a 1-D array and ``args`` is a tuple of any additional fixed parameters needed to completely specify the function. ranges : tuple Each component of the `ranges` tuple must be either a "slice object" or a range tuple of the form ``(low, high)``. The program uses these to create the grid of points on which the objective function will be computed. See `Note 2` for more detail. args : tuple, optional Any additional fixed parameters needed to completely specify the function. Ns : int, optional Number of grid points along the axes, if not otherwise specified. See `Note2`. full_output : bool, optional If True, return the evaluation grid and the objective function's values on it. finish : callable, optional An optimization function that is called with the result of brute force minimization as initial guess. `finish` should take `func` and the initial guess as positional arguments, and take `args` as keyword arguments. It may additionally take `full_output` and/or `disp` as keyword arguments. Use None if no "polishing" function is to be used. See Notes for more details. disp : bool, optional Set to True to print convergence messages from the `finish` callable. workers : int or map-like callable, optional If `workers` is an int the grid is subdivided into `workers` sections and evaluated in parallel (uses `multiprocessing.Pool `). Supply `-1` to use all cores available to the Process. Alternatively supply a map-like callable, such as `multiprocessing.Pool.map` for evaluating the grid in parallel. This evaluation is carried out as ``workers(func, iterable)``. Requires that `func` be pickleable. .. versionadded:: 1.3.0 Returns ------- x0 : ndarray A 1-D array containing the coordinates of a point at which the objective function had its minimum value. (See `Note 1` for which point is returned.) fval : float Function value at the point `x0`. (Returned when `full_output` is True.) grid : tuple Representation of the evaluation grid. It has the same length as `x0`. (Returned when `full_output` is True.) Jout : ndarray Function values at each point of the evaluation grid, `i.e.`, ``Jout = func(*grid)``. (Returned when `full_output` is True.) See Also -------- basinhopping, differential_evolution Notes ----- *Note 1*: The program finds the gridpoint at which the lowest value of the objective function occurs. If `finish` is None, that is the point returned. When the global minimum occurs within (or not very far outside) the grid's boundaries, and the grid is fine enough, that point will be in the neighborhood of the global minimum. However, users often employ some other optimization program to "polish" the gridpoint values, `i.e.`, to seek a more precise (local) minimum near `brute's` best gridpoint. The `brute` function's `finish` option provides a convenient way to do that. Any polishing program used must take `brute's` output as its initial guess as a positional argument, and take `brute's` input values for `args` as keyword arguments, otherwise an error will be raised. It may additionally take `full_output` and/or `disp` as keyword arguments. `brute` assumes that the `finish` function returns either an `OptimizeResult` object or a tuple in the form: ``(xmin, Jmin, ... , statuscode)``, where ``xmin`` is the minimizing value of the argument, ``Jmin`` is the minimum value of the objective function, "..." may be some other returned values (which are not used by `brute`), and ``statuscode`` is the status code of the `finish` program. Note that when `finish` is not None, the values returned are those of the `finish` program, *not* the gridpoint ones. Consequently, while `brute` confines its search to the input grid points, the `finish` program's results usually will not coincide with any gridpoint, and may fall outside the grid's boundary. Thus, if a minimum only needs to be found over the provided grid points, make sure to pass in `finish=None`. *Note 2*: The grid of points is a `numpy.mgrid` object. For `brute` the `ranges` and `Ns` inputs have the following effect. Each component of the `ranges` tuple can be either a slice object or a two-tuple giving a range of values, such as (0, 5). If the component is a slice object, `brute` uses it directly. If the component is a two-tuple range, `brute` internally converts it to a slice object that interpolates `Ns` points from its low-value to its high-value, inclusive. Examples -------- We illustrate the use of `brute` to seek the global minimum of a function of two variables that is given as the sum of a positive-definite quadratic and two deep "Gaussian-shaped" craters. Specifically, define the objective function `f` as the sum of three other functions, ``f = f1 + f2 + f3``. We suppose each of these has a signature ``(z, *params)``, where ``z = (x, y)``, and ``params`` and the functions are as defined below. >>> params = (2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 44, -1, 2, 26, 1, -2, 0.5) >>> def f1(z, *params): ... x, y = z ... a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, scale = params ... return (a * x**2 + b * x * y + c * y**2 + d*x + e*y + f) >>> def f2(z, *params): ... x, y = z ... a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, scale = params ... return (-g*np.exp(-((x-h)**2 + (y-i)**2) / scale)) >>> def f3(z, *params): ... x, y = z ... a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, scale = params ... return (-j*np.exp(-((x-k)**2 + (y-l)**2) / scale)) >>> def f(z, *params): ... return f1(z, *params) + f2(z, *params) + f3(z, *params) Thus, the objective function may have local minima near the minimum of each of the three functions of which it is composed. To use `fmin` to polish its gridpoint result, we may then continue as follows: >>> rranges = (slice(-4, 4, 0.25), slice(-4, 4, 0.25)) >>> from scipy import optimize >>> resbrute = optimize.brute(f, rranges, args=params, full_output=True, ... finish=optimize.fmin) >>> resbrute[0] # global minimum array([-1.05665192, 1.80834843]) >>> resbrute[1] # function value at global minimum -3.4085818767 Note that if `finish` had been set to None, we would have gotten the gridpoint [-1.0 1.75] where the rounded function value is -2.892.
