Re: Minimize many scalar functions

Hi Guillaume,

Thanks for the answer. It looks my problem is acknowledged on a few github issues and PRs, see here for example:
https://github.com/scipy/scipy/pull/8357

However I'm not sure that even this PR would solve my specific usage of many calls to optimize.minimize_scalar with objective functions parametrized slightly differently for each.

Hi Victor,

I guess it depends a lot on the scalar functions and if they can be vectorized... But you can always optimize on an array of inputs with optimize.minimize, can't you?

A more explicit example would help us help you I guess.



Best

Hi all,

I'd like to minimize hundreds of thousands of scalar valued functions. Is there a faster way than a for-loop over a def of the objective function and a call to scipy.optimize.minimize_scalar? Basically a vectorized version, where I could give a function foo and a 2D numpy array where each row is given as extra data to the objective function.

Thanks,

Victor Poughon
