OptimizationAlgorithm

class OptimizationAlgorithm

Bases: ABC

An abstract class for optimization algorithms in Qiskit optimization module.

Methods

abstract get_compatibility_msg(problem)

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

Parámetros:

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

Devuelve:

Returns the incompatibility message. If the message is empty no issues were found.

Tipo del valor devuelto:

str

is_compatible(problem)

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

Parámetros:

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

Devuelve:

Returns True if the problem is compatible, False otherwise.

Tipo del valor devuelto:

bool

abstract solve(problem)

Tries to solves the given problem using the optimizer.

Runs the optimizer to try to solve the optimization problem.

Parámetros:

problem (QuadraticProgram) – The problem to be solved.

Devuelve:

The result of the optimizer applied to the problem.

Muestra:

QiskitOptimizationError – If the problem is incompatible with the optimizer.

Tipo del valor devuelto:

OptimizationResult
