oi_async: Syntactic Sugar for Asynchronous Optimization Instance Construction

Description

Function to construct an OptimInstanceAsyncSingleCrit and OptimInstanceAsyncMultiCrit.

Usage

oi_async(
  objective,
  search_space = NULL,
  terminator,
  check_values = FALSE,
  callbacks = NULL,
  rush = NULL
)

Arguments

objective

(Objective)
Objective function.

search_space

(paradox::ParamSet)
Specifies the search space for the Optimizer. The paradox::ParamSet describes either a subset of the domain of the Objective or it describes a set of parameters together with a trafo function that transforms values from the search space to values of the domain. Depending on the context, this value defaults to the domain of the objective.

terminator

Terminator
Termination criterion.

check_values

(logical(1))
Should points before the evaluation and the results be checked for validity?

callbacks

(list of mlr3misc::Callback)
List of callbacks.

rush

(Rush)
If a rush instance is supplied, the tuning runs without batches.

Examples

# example only runs if a Redis server is available
if (mlr3misc::require_namespaces(c("rush", "redux", "mirai"), quietly = TRUE) &&
  redux::redis_available()) {
# define the objective function
fun = function(xs) {
  list(y = - (xs[[1]] - 2)^2 - (xs[[2]] + 3)^2 + 10)
}

# set domain
domain = ps(
  x1 = p_dbl(-10, 10),
  x2 = p_dbl(-5, 5)
)

# set codomain
codomain = ps(
  y = p_dbl(tags = "maximize")
)

# create objective
objective = ObjectiveRFun$new(
  fun = fun,
  domain = domain,
  codomain = codomain,
  properties = "deterministic"
)

# start workers
rush::rush_plan(worker_type = "remote")
mirai::daemons(1)

# initialize instance
instance = oi_async(
  objective = objective,
  terminator = trm("evals", n_evals = 20)
)
}
