## Installation

Optuna is available at [the Python Package Index](https://pypi.org/project/optuna/) and on [Anaconda Cloud](https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/optuna).

```bash

---

# 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`.

```python
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")
