GurobiOptimizer#

class GurobiOptimizer(disp=False)[source]#

Bases: OptimizationAlgorithm

The Gurobi optimizer wrapped as an Qiskit OptimizationAlgorithm.

This class provides a wrapper for gurobipy to be used within the optimization module.

Examples

>>> from qiskit_optimization.problems import QuadraticProgram
>>> from qiskit_optimization.algorithms import GurobiOptimizer
>>> problem = QuadraticProgram()
>>> # specify problem here, if gurobi is installed
>>> optimizer = GurobiOptimizer() if GurobiOptimizer.is_gurobi_installed() else None
>>> # Suppress gurobipy print info to stdout
>>> import sys
>>> class DevNull:
...     def noop(*args, **kwargs): pass
...     close = write = flush = writelines = noop
>>> sys.stdout = DevNull()
>>> result = optimizer.solve(problem)

Initializes the GurobiOptimizer.

প্যারামিটার:

disp (bool) -- Whether to print Gurobi output or not.

Attributes

disp#

Returns the display setting.

রিটার্নস:

Whether to print Gurobi information or not.

Methods

get_compatibility_msg(problem)[source]#

Checks whether a given problem can be solved with this optimizer.

Returns '' since Gurobi accepts all problems that can be modeled using the QuadraticProgram. Gurobi will also solve non-convex problems.

প্যারামিটার:

problem (QuadraticProgram) -- The optimization problem to check compatibility.

রিটার্নস:

An empty string.

রিটার্ন টাইপ:

str

is_compatible(problem)#

Checks whether a given problem can be solved with the optimizer implementing this method.

প্যারামিটার:

problem (QuadraticProgram) -- The optimization problem to check compatibility.

রিটার্নস:

Returns True if the problem is compatible, False otherwise.

রিটার্ন টাইপ:

bool

static is_gurobi_installed()[source]#

Returns True if gurobi is installed

solve(problem)[source]#

Tries to solves the given problem using the optimizer.

Runs the optimizer to try to solve the optimization problem. If problem is not convex, this optimizer may raise an exception due to incompatibility, depending on the settings.

প্যারামিটার:

problem (QuadraticProgram) -- The problem to be solved.

রিটার্নস:

The result of the optimizer applied to the problem.

রেইজেস:

QiskitOptimizationError -- If the problem is incompatible with the optimizer.

রিটার্ন টাইপ:

OptimizationResult
