Decision brief

Optuna automates hyperparameter tuning in Python, integrating seamlessly with major ML frameworks.

Good fit when

  • When you need to streamline the hyperparameter tuning process for machine learning models built in Python.
  • For optimizing model performance where automation and a streamlined workflow are crucial.

Avoid when

  • If your project is not compatible with Python, as Optuna does not support other languages directly out of box.
  • Projects requiring manual control over every aspect of hyperparameter tuning might find Optuna too automated for their needs.

Installation

Optuna is available at the Python Package Index and on Anaconda Cloud.


---

# Install AutoSampler dependencies (CPU only is sufficient for PyTorch)
$ pip install cmaes scipy torch --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu

You can load registered module with optunahub.load_module.

import optuna
import optunahub


def objective(trial: optuna.Trial) -> float:
    x = trial.suggest_float("x", -5, 5)
    y = trial.suggest_float("y", -5, 5)
    return x**2 + y**2


module = optunahub.load_module(package="samplers/auto_sampler")
