Bases: [`SciPyOptimizer`](qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.SciPyOptimizer "qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.scipy_optimizer.SciPyOptimizer")
|
||
|
||
Constrained Optimization By Linear Approximation optimizer.
|
||
|
||
COBYLA is a numerical optimization method for constrained problems where the derivative of the objective function is not known.
|
||
|
||
Uses scipy.optimize.minimize COBYLA. For further detail, 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** ([*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)")) – Maximum number of function evaluations.
|
||
* **disp** ([*bool*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool "(in Python v3.12)")) – Set to True to print convergence messages.
|
||
* **rhobeg** ([*float*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float "(in Python v3.12)")) – Reasonable initial changes to the variables.
|
||
* **tol** ([*float*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float "(in Python v3.12)") *| None*) – Final accuracy in the optimization (not precisely guaranteed). This is a lower bound on the size of the trust region.
|
||
* **options** ([*dict*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.12)") *| None*) – A dictionary of solver options.
|
||
* **kwargs** – additional kwargs for scipy.optimize.minimize.

||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.optimizers.COBYLA.gradient_num_diff" signature="gradient_num_diff(x_center, f, epsilon, max_evals_grouped=None)" modifiers="static">
|

|
||
* **max\_evals\_grouped** ([*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int "(in Python v3.12)")) – max evals grouped, defaults to 1 (i.e. no batching).

Minimize the scalar function.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**

||
|
||
* **fun** (*Callable\[\[POINT],* [*float*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float "(in Python v3.12)")*]*) – The scalar function to minimize.
