Nevergrad
A Python toolbox for performing gradient-free optimization
Nevergrad is a Python library for derivative-free optimization, offering robust implementations of many algorithms suited for black-box functions (i.e. functions where gradients are unavailable or unreliable). It targets hyperparameter search, architecture search, control problems, and experimental tuning—domains in which gradient-based methods may fail or be inapplicable. The library provides an easy interface to define an optimization problem (parameter space, loss function, budget) and...
