Qiskit¶
A set of interoperable components for Qiskit Aqua’s optimizer package are
available in skquant.interop.qiskit
.
These classes derive from Qiskit’s Optimizer
class and implement the
same interface, such that the skquant optimmizers can be used as drop-in
replacements in Qiskit-based codes.
Caution
The optimizer classes in Qiskit’s Optimizer
package do not follow
proper conventions themselves.
In writing the interop component classes, an attempt was made to stick
to the most prevalent conventions present as of Aqua
version 0.7.1.
Example usage:
from skquant.interop.qiskit import SnobFit
x0 = np.array([0.5, 0.5])
bounds = np.array([[-1, 1], [-1, 1]], dtype=float)
optimizer = SnobFit(maxfun=40, maxmp=len(x0)+6)
ret = optimizer.optimize(num_vars=len(x0),
objective_function=your_objective,
variable_bounds=bounds,
initial_point=x0)
Available component classes are ImFil
, SnobFit
, Nomad
, and
PyBobyqa
.
