199 Args:
200 solver: Solver
201 The solver to use for configuration.
202 instance_set: InstanceSet
203 The instance set to use for configuration.
204 sparkle_objectives: list[SparkleObjective]
205 The objectives to optimize.
206 number_of_runs: int
207 The number of times this scenario will be executed with different seeds.
208 parent_directory: Path
209 The parent directory where the configuration files will be stored.
210 solver_cutoff_time: int
211 Maximum CPU runtime in seconds that each solver call (trial)
212 is allowed to run. Is managed by RunSolver, not pynisher.
213 smac_facade: AbstractFacade, defaults to AlgorithmConfigurationFacade
214 The SMAC facade to use for Optimisation.
215 crash_cost: float | list[float], defaults to np.inf
216 Defines the cost for a failed trial. In case of multi-objective,
217 each objective can be associated with a different cost.
218 termination_cost_threshold: float | list[float], defaults to np.inf
219 Defines a cost threshold when the optimization should stop. In case of
220 multi-objective, each objective *must* be associated with a cost.
221 The optimization stops when all objectives crossed the threshold.
222 walltime_limit: float, defaults to np.inf
223 The maximum time in seconds that SMAC is allowed to run. Only counts
224 solver time.
225 cputime_limit: float, defaults to np.inf
226 The maximum CPU time in seconds that SMAC is allowed to run. Only counts
227 solver time.
228 solver_calls: int, defaults to None
229 The maximum number of trials (combination of configuration, seed, budget,
230 and instance, depending on the task) to run. If left as None, will be
231 calculated as int(cutoff time / cputime or walltime limit)
232 use_default_config: bool, defaults to False
233 If True, the configspace's default configuration is evaluated in the
234 initial design. For historic benchmark reasons, this is False by default.
235 Notice, that this will result in n_configs + 1 for the initial design.
236 Respecting n_trials, this will result in one fewer evaluated
237 configuration in the optimization.
238 instances: list[str] | None, defaults to None
239 Names of the instances to use. If None, no instances are used. Instances
240 could be dataset names, seeds, subsets, etc.
241 feature_data: FeatureDataFrame or Path, defaults to None
242 Instances can be associated with features. For example, meta data of
243 the dataset (mean, var, ...) can be incorporated which are then further
244 used to expand the training data of the surrogate model. If Path, loaded
245 from file. When no features are given, uses index as instance features.
246 min_budget: float | int | None, defaults to None
247 The minimum budget (epochs, subset size, number of instances, ...) that
248 is used for the optimization. Use this argument if you use multi-fidelity
249 or instance optimization.
250 max_budget: float | int | None, defaults to None
251 The maximum budget (epochs, subset size, number of instances, ...) that
252 is used for the optimization. Use this argument if you use multi-fidelity
253 or instance optimization.
254 seed: int, defaults to -1
255 The seed is used to make results reproducible.
256 If seed is -1, SMAC will generate a random seed.
257 n_workers: int, defaults to 1
258 The number of workers to use for parallelization.
259 If `n_workers` is greather than 1, SMAC will use DASK to parallelize the
260 optimization.
261 max_ratio: float, defaults to None.
262 Facade uses at most scenario.n_trials * max_ratio number of
263 configurations in the initial design. Additional configurations are not
264 affected by this parameter. Not applicable to each facade.
265 smac3_output_directory: Path, defaults to Path()
266 The output subdirectory for the SMAC3 scenario. Defaults to the scenario
267 results directory.
268 timestamp: An optional timestamp for the directory name.
