dimod 0.6.9

A shared API for binary quadratic model samplers.

dimod

dimod is a shared API for binary quadratic samplers. It provides a binary quadratic model (BQM) class that contains Ising and quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) models used by samplers such as the D-Wave system. It also provides utilities for constructing new samplers and composed samplers and for minor-embedding. Its reference examples include several samplers and composed samplers.

Example Usage

This example constructs a simple QUBO and converts it to Ising format.

>>> import dimod
>>> bqm = dimod.BinaryQuadraticModel({0: -1, 1: -1}, {(0, 1): 2}, 0.0, dimod.BINARY)  # QUBO
>>> bqm_ising = bqm.change_vartype(dimod.SPIN, inplace=False)  # Ising

An example of using one of the built-in test Samplers.

>>> import dimod
>>> h = {0: 0.0, 1: 0.0}
>>> J = {(0, 1): -1.0}
>>> bqm = dimod.BinaryQuadraticModel.from_ising(h, J)
>>> response = dimod.ExactSolver().sample(bqm)
>>> response.samples_matrix
matrix([[-1, -1],
        [ 1, -1],
        [ 1,  1],
        [-1,  1]])
