Bases: `qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.optimizer.Optimizer`
Nakanishi-Fujii-Todo algorithm.
See [https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.12166](https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.12166)
Built out using scipy framework, for details, please refer to [https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.optimize.minimize.html](https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.optimize.minimize.html).
**Parameters**
* **maxiter** (`Optional`\[`int`]) Maximum number of iterations to perform.
* **maxfev** (`int`) Maximum number of function evaluations to perform.
* **disp** (`bool`) disp
* **reset\_interval** (`int`) The minimum estimates directly once in `reset_interval` times.
**Notes**
In this optimization method, the optimization function have to satisfy three conditions written in [1](#id2).

## Methods
### get\_support\_level
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.get_support_level" signature="NFT.get_support_level()">
return support level dictionary
</Function>
### gradient\_num\_diff
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.gradient_num_diff" signature="NFT.gradient_num_diff(x_center, f, epsilon, max_evals_grouped=1)" modifiers="static">
We compute the gradient with the numeric differentiation in the parallel way, around the point x\_center.
**Parameters**
* **x\_center** (*ndarray*) point around which we compute the gradient
* **f** (*func*) the function of which the gradient is to be computed.
* **epsilon** (*float*) the epsilon used in the numeric differentiation.
* **max\_evals\_grouped** (*int*) max evals grouped
**Returns**
the gradient computed
**Return type**
grad
</Function>
### optimize
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.optimize" signature="NFT.optimize(num_vars, objective_function, gradient_function=None, variable_bounds=None, initial_point=None)">
Perform optimization.
**Parameters**
* **num\_vars** (*int*) Number of parameters to be optimized.
* **objective\_function** (*callable*) A function that computes the objective function.
* **gradient\_function** (*callable*) A function that computes the gradient of the objective function, or None if not available.
* **variable\_bounds** (*list\[(float, float)]*) List of variable bounds, given as pairs (lower, upper). None means unbounded.
* **initial\_point** (*numpy.ndarray\[float]*) Initial point.
**Returns**
**point, value, nfev**
point: is a 1D numpy.ndarray\[float] containing the solution value: is a float with the objective function value nfev: number of objective function calls made if available or None
**Raises**
**ValueError** invalid input
</Function>
### print\_options
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.print_options" signature="NFT.print_options()">
Print algorithm-specific options.
</Function>
### set\_max\_evals\_grouped
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.set_max_evals_grouped" signature="NFT.set_max_evals_grouped(limit)">
Set max evals grouped
</Function>
### set\_options
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.set_options" signature="NFT.set_options(**kwargs)">
Sets or updates values in the options dictionary.
The options dictionary may be used internally by a given optimizer to pass additional optional values for the underlying optimizer/optimization function used. The options dictionary may be initially populated with a set of key/values when the given optimizer is constructed.
**Parameters**
**kwargs** (*dict*) options, given as name=value.
</Function>
### wrap\_function
<Function id="qiskit.aqua.components.optimizers.NFT.wrap_function" signature="NFT.wrap_function(function, args)" modifiers="static">
Wrap the function to implicitly inject the args at the call of the function.
**Parameters**
* **function** (*func*) the target function
* **args** (*tuple*) the args to be injected
**Returns**
wrapper
**Return type**
function\_wrapper
</Function>
