scipy.optimize.Bounds#
- class scipy.optimize.Bounds(lb=- inf, ub=inf, keep_feasible=False)[source]#
Bounds constraint on the variables.
The constraint has the general inequality form:
lb <= x <= ub
It is possible to use equal bounds to represent an equality constraint or infinite bounds to represent a one-sided constraint.
- Parameters
- lb, ubarray_like, optional
Lower and upper bounds on independent variables. lb, ub, and keep_feasible must be the same shape or broadcastable. Set components of lb and ub equal to fix a variable. Use
np.inf
with an appropriate sign to disable bounds on all or some variables. Note that you can mix constraints of different types: interval, one-sided or equality, by setting different components of lb and ub as necessary. Defaults tolb = -np.inf
andub = np.inf
(no bounds).- keep_feasiblearray_like of bool, optional
Whether to keep the constraint components feasible throughout iterations. Must be broadcastable with lb and ub. Default is False. Has no effect for equality constraints.
