Derivative-Free Solver for Bound-Constrained Minimization
copied from cf-staging / pybobyqaPy-BOBYQA is a flexible package for solving bound-constrained general objective minimization, without requiring derivatives of the objective. At its core, it is a Python implementation of the BOBYQA algorithm by Powell, but Py-BOBYQA has extra features improving its performance on some problems (see the papers below for details). Py-BOBYQA is particularly useful when evaluations of the objective function are expensive and/or noisy.
