# Optimizer
|
||
|
||
<Class id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.23/qiskit/algorithms/optimizers/optimizer.py" signature="Optimizer" modifiers="class">
|
||
Bases: `abc.ABC`
|
||
|
||
Base class for optimization algorithm.
|
||
|
||
Initialize the optimization algorithm, setting the support level for \_gradient\_support\_level, \_bound\_support\_level, \_initial\_point\_support\_level, and empty options.
|
||
|
||
## Methods
|
||
|
||
### get\_support\_level
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer.get_support_level" signature="Optimizer.get_support_level()" modifiers="abstract">

||
</Function>
|
||
|
||
### gradient\_num\_diff
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer.gradient_num_diff" signature="Optimizer.gradient_num_diff(x_center, f, epsilon, max_evals_grouped=None)" 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, defaults to 1 (i.e. no batching).

||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|

### minimize
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer.minimize" signature="Optimizer.minimize(fun, x0, jac=None, bounds=None)" modifiers="abstract">
|
||
Minimize the scalar function.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **fun** (`Callable`\[\[`Union`\[`float`, `ndarray`]], `float`]) – The scalar function to minimize.
|
||
* **x0** (`Union`\[`float`, `ndarray`]) – The initial point for the minimization.
|
||
* **jac** (`Optional`\[`Callable`\[\[`Union`\[`float`, `ndarray`]], `Union`\[`float`, `ndarray`]]]) – The gradient of the scalar function `fun`.
|
||
* **bounds** (`Optional`\[`List`\[`Tuple`\[`float`, `float`]]]) – Bounds for the variables of `fun`. This argument might be ignored if the optimizer does not support bounds.

||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer.print_options" signature="Optimizer.print_options()">
|

||
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer.set_options" signature="Optimizer.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 id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.Optimizer.wrap_function" signature="Optimizer.wrap_function(function, args)" modifiers="static">
|
||
Wrap the function to implicitly inject the args at the call of the function.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
