scipy.optimize.minimize(fun, x0, args=(), method='L-BFGS-B', jac=None, bounds=None, tol=None, callback=None, options={'disp': None, 'maxls': 20, 'iprint': -1, 'gtol': 1e-05, 'eps': 1e-08, 'maxiter': 15000, 'ftol': 2.220446049250313e-09, 'maxcor': 10, 'maxfun': 15000})

Minimize a scalar function of one or more variables using the L-BFGS-B algorithm.

Options:

disp : bool

Set to True to print convergence messages.

maxcor : int

The maximum number of variable metric corrections used to define the limited memory matrix. (The limited memory BFGS method does not store the full hessian but uses this many terms in an approximation to it.)

factr : float

The iteration stops when (f^k - f^{k+1})/max{|f^k|,|f^{k+1}|,1} <= factr * eps, where eps is the machine precision, which is automatically generated by the code. Typical values for factr are: 1e12 for low accuracy; 1e7 for moderate accuracy; 10.0 for extremely high accuracy.

ftol : float

The iteration stops when (f^k - f^{k+1})/max{|f^k|,|f^{k+1}|,1} <= ftol.

gtol : float

The iteration will stop when max{|proj g_i | i = 1, ..., n} <= gtol where pg_i is the i-th component of the projected gradient.

eps : float

Step size used for numerical approximation of the jacobian.

disp : int

Set to True to print convergence messages.

maxfun : int

Maximum number of function evaluations.

maxiter : int

Maximum number of iterations.

maxls : int, optional

Maximum number of line search steps (per iteration). Default is 20.
