generates a Latin +Hypercube sample in the transformed, reduced search space. +`curate_initial_design()` removes duplicate points and generates replacements as needed. +Because points are dispatched concurrently to worker processes or threads in the next +phase, curation must be complete before submission: worker processes operate on a +snapshot of the optimiser serialised with `dill` and cannot interact with the +main-process state. +Immediately after curation, restart injection is applied: a `y0_prefilled` array (all +`NaN` by default) is populated with `y0_known` at the position of the matching `self.x0` +point, using the same distance tolerance as `_initialize_run()` in the sequential path. +This pre-filled array is consumed by Phase 1 to skip one pool submission per restart. +

CPU-level parallelism and safe isolation of arbitrary callables. +Surrogate search tasks are always dispatched to a `ThreadPoolExecutor` because they +share the main-process heap and require no serialisation. +On free-threaded builds (`python3.13t`) both pools are `ThreadPoolExecutor` instances: +threads achieve true parallelism without the GIL, `dill` serialisation is eliminated, +and the objective function is called directly from the shared heap. +The `_surrogate_lock` (a `threading.Lock`) is used in both configurations to serialise +concurrent surrogate reads and refits. +

eval_pool.submit(remote_eval_wrapper, pickled_args) + futures[fut] = "eval" + n_to_submit += 1 +``` + +The initial design is partitioned into two groups before any worker is touched. +Points that carry a pre-filled `y0_prefilled` value — set during Step 4 for the +restart-injected best point — are stored on the main thread via +`_update_storage_steady()` and skipped entirely. +The remaining `n_to_submit` points are submitted to `eval_pool` concurrently. +On GIL builds each point is serialised together with a snapshot of the optimiser using +`dill.dumps()`; the TensorBoard writer is temporarily set to `None` before serialisation +because `SummaryWriter` objects are not picklable. +`remote_eval_wrapper()` unpickles the arguments in the worker process, reshapes the +point to a `(1, d)` array, calls `evaluate_function()`, and returns the `(x, y)` pair. +On free-threaded builds `_thread_eval_task_single()` calls `evaluate_function()` without +any serialisation overhead. +All submitted futures are tracked in a `futures` dictionary keyed by `Future` object +with the string tag `"eval"`. +When `y0_known` is `None` (no restart), `y0_prefilled` is all-NaN and `n_to_submit`

+The main thread waits in a loop using `concurrent.futures.wait()` with +`return_when=FIRST_COMPLETED`, processing each completed future as it arrives. +Futures tagged `"eval"` are the only type active during Phase 1; any unexpected type +is silently skipped. +When a result is an `Exception` instance — indicating a worker-side failure — the point +is dropped and, if `verbose=True`, the error is printed; the initial design count still +advances so the loop terminates correctly. +For valid results, `_update_storage_steady()` appends the point in original scale to +`X_` and its objective value to `y_`, initialising both arrays on the first call. +It also updates `best_x_`, `best_y_`, `min_y`, and `min_X` in-place whenever the new +value improves on the current best. +Because the main thread is the only writer during Phase 1, no locking is required here. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt =

diagnostic message pointing to likely causes such as +unpicklable callables or missing imports inside the worker process. +`update_stats()` refreshes `min_y`, `min_X`, `counter`, and, for noisy objectives, +aggregated per-point means and variances. +`get_best_xy_initial_design()` identifies the initial best solution and writes it to +`best_x_` and `best_y_`; unlike the sequential path, these

model is fitted to the complete initial +design for the first time. +No surrogate lock is acquired here because the `search_pool` has not yet been populated: +this is the only point in the parallel path where `_fit_scheduler()` is called without +holding `_surrogate_lock`. +`_fit_scheduler()` selects the most recent `window_size` training points according to +`selection_method`, fits the surrogate, and prepares it for acquisition-function +queries. +When a list of surrogates was specified at construction, one is chosen probabilistically +according to `prob_surrogate` before fitting. +

complete + # route result by ftype: "search" or "batch_eval" +``` + +The main iteration loop runs until either the evaluation budget `effective_max_iter` or +the wall-clock limit `max_time` minutes is exhausted. +Two data structures coordinate the flow: `pending_cands` accumulates candidates returned +by completed search tasks, and `_future_n_pts` maps each in-flight batch-eval future to +the number of points it carries. +Both structures are required for accurate budget accounting: the reserved count is +`len(y_) + n_in_flight + n_active_searches + len(pending_cands)`, ensuring the total +never exceeds `effective_max_iter` regardless of concurrency. +Each loop iteration performs four actions in order — batch flush, slot filling, second +flush, and future wait — before routing completed results by their type tag. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5,

len(pending_cands) >= self.eval_batch_size: + return True + return not any(t == "search" for t in futures.values()) +``` + +`_batch_ready()` determines whether the accumulated candidates in `pending_cands` should +be dispatched as a batch evaluation. +The primary condition is that the number of pending candidates meets or exceeds +`eval_batch_size`. +A secondary starvation-guard condition also triggers a flush when no search tasks remain +in flight: without this guard, pending candidates would block indefinitely if the budget +is nearly exhausted and no further search tasks can be submitted. +With `eval_batch_size=1` (the default), `_batch_ready()` returns `True` whenever any +candidate is pending, preserving the one-point-at-a-time behaviour of the sequential +path. +Larger values of `eval_batch_size` amortise process-spawn and inter-process +communication overhead across multiple points, improving throughput for expensive +objectives on GIL builds. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +# Default batch size = 1: each search result is dispatched immediately +opt =

+`_flush_batch()` stacks all pending candidates into a single `(n, d)` array `X_batch`, +clears `pending_cands`, and dispatches the batch to `eval_pool` as one future. +On GIL builds `remote_batch_eval_wrapper()` is used: it unpickles the optimiser and +batch in the worker process, calls `evaluate_function(X_batch)` once, and returns +`(X_batch, y_batch)`. +Evaluating the whole batch in a single `fun()` call avoids repeated process-spawn +overhead and allows vectorised objective implementations to exploit NumPy-level +parallelism within the worker. +On free-threaded builds `_thread_batch_eval_task()` performs the same operation +directly in a thread without serialisation. +The future is registered under the `"batch_eval"` tag and its point count is recorded in +`_future_n_pts` so that budget accounting remains correct while the evaluation is +in flight. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import

len(pending_cands) +if reserved < effective_max_iter: + fut = search_pool.submit(_thread_search_task) + futures[fut] = "search" +``` + +At each loop iteration, the main thread fills any open slots in the search pool up to +`n_jobs` concurrent tasks. +Before submitting a new search task, the budget guard checks that adding one more +in-flight search would not push the reserved count over `effective_max_iter`: if it +would, no further search tasks are submitted and the loop drains existing futures until +the budget is consumed. +`_thread_search_task()` is a nested closure that acquires `_surrogate_lock` before +calling `suggest_next_infill_point()` and releases it on return, so that a concurrent +surrogate refit on the main thread cannot corrupt the model while a search thread reads +it. +Because search tasks are always submitted to a `ThreadPoolExecutor`, they share the main +process heap and require no serialisation regardless of the GIL state. + +```{python} +import numpy as

acquisition function to identify the most +promising candidate for the next objective evaluation. +The acquisition strategy is controlled by `acquisition` (default `"y"`, minimising the +surrogate prediction directly). +The acquisition optimiser (default `"differential_evolution"`) searches the transformed, +reduced search space. +When the optimiser fails, the fallback strategy selected by +`acquisition_failure_strategy` applies; `"random"` (the default) draws a uniform random +point. +In the parallel path this method is always called inside `_thread_search_task()`, which +holds `_surrogate_lock` for the duration of the call, preventing simultaneous surrogate +access by multiple search threads or by the main-thread refit. + +```{python} +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from

+`concurrent.futures.wait()` with `return_when=FIRST_COMPLETED` blocks until at least +one future finishes, then returns all futures that are done. +Each completed future is popped from `futures` and routed by its type tag. +For a `"search"` future the returned candidate is appended to `pending_cands`; if this +pushes the list over the batch threshold, `_flush_batch()` is called immediately to +avoid an unnecessary extra loop iteration. +For a `"batch_eval"` future the corresponding entry in `_future_n_pts` is removed so +that budget accounting is unblocked before the storage update begins. +If a result is an `Exception` — indicating a remote failure — the error is optionally +printed, the budget entry is removed, and the loop continues; failed search slots are +refilled in the next iteration, and failed eval points are lost without charging the +budget counter. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt =

updates `best_x_` and +`best_y_` if an improvement is found, and synchronises `min_y` and `min_X`. +`n_iter_` is incremented once per point so that it reflects the total number of +post-initial-design evaluations. +After all points in the batch have been stored, `_fit_scheduler()` is called once under +`_surrogate_lock`, refitting the surrogate on the updated training window. +Batching the refit in

execute_optimization_run() and every method it calls along the sequential path, with executable examples validated by pytest." +--- + +This document traces every step executed by `SpotOptim.execute_optimization_run()` along +the sequential code path (`n_jobs=1`), in the order they occur. +Each section describes one method with a `{python}` code block that can be executed directly. + +The public entry point is `optimize()`, which manages the outer restart loop and delegates +each cycle to `execute_optimization_run()`. +When `n_jobs == 1` (the default), that dispatcher routes to `optimize_sequential_run()`, +which coordinates initialisation, storage setup, and the main iteration loop. +This document covers that path in full. + +Run all related tests with: + +```bash +uv run pytest tests/test_spotoptim_deep.py -v +``` + +--- + +## Step 1 — Dispatch (`execute_optimization_run()`) + +```python +if self.n_jobs > 1: + return self.optimize_steady_state(...) +else: + return self.optimize_sequential_run(...) +``` + +`execute_optimization_run()` is the routing layer between the outer restart loop in +`optimize()` and the actual optimisation engine. +Its sole responsibility is to examine `n_jobs` and forward all arguments to either +`optimize_steady_state()` (parallel) or `optimize_sequential_run()` (sequential). +It returns a `(status, OptimizeResult)` tuple in both cases, which `optimize()` uses to +decide whether to restart or terminate. +The optional `shared_best_y` and `shared_lock` parameters support inter-worker +coordination in the parallel path; they are `None` in sequential mode. + +```{python} +import time +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere,

self._initialize_run(X0, y0_known) +X0, y0, n_evaluated = self.rm_NA_values(X0, y0) +self.check_size_initial_design(y0, n_evaluated) +self.init_storage(X0, y0) +self._zero_success_count = 0 +self._success_history = [] +self.update_stats() +self._init_tensorboard() +self.get_best_xy_initial_design() +return self._run_sequential_loop(timeout_start, effective_max_iter) +``` + +`optimize_sequential_run()` is the sequential orchestrator. +It calls eight methods in fixed order to prepare internal state before handing off +to `_run_sequential_loop()` for the iterative acquisition phase. +The zero-success counter and success-history list are reset here so that each fresh +run (including restarts) begins with a clean convergence record. +When `max_iter_override` is supplied by `optimize()`, it replaces the configured +`max_iter` as the effective evaluation budget for this run. + +```{python} +import time +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=10, seed=0) +status, result = opt.optimize_sequential_run(timeout_start=time.time()) +print(f"status :

Step 3 — Initialisation (`_initialize_run()`) + +```python +self.set_seed() +X0 = self.get_initial_design(X0) +X0 = self.curate_initial_design(X0) +y0 = self.evaluate_function(X0) +return X0, y0 +``` + +`_initialize_run()` performs three preparatory actions before the first surrogate can +be fitted. +`set_seed()` re-seeds Python's `random` module and NumPy's global generator to ensure +reproducibility within the run. +`get_initial_design()` either processes the user-supplied `X0` or generates a +Latin Hypercube sample in the transformed, reduced search space. +`curate_initial_design()` removes duplicate points and generates replacements as needed. +The curated design is then evaluated in batch via `evaluate_function()`. + +When a best-known value `y0_known` is provided (restart injection), the point that +matches `self.x0` is not re-evaluated; its objective value is taken directly from the +previous run, saving one function call. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], n_initial=5, seed=42) +X0, y0 =

np.all(np.isfinite(y0)) +print("_initialize_run check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 4 — Filtering Invalid Evaluations (`rm_NA_values()`) + +```python +finite_mask = np.isfinite(y0) +X0 = X0[finite_mask] +y0 = y0[finite_mask] +return X0, y0, len(finite_mask) +``` + +Initial design points whose objective value is `NaN` or `±inf` are removed rather than +penalised. +This is the correct policy for the initial phase: a penalty value would corrupt the +surrogate's training data, whereas removal simply reduces the effective initial design +size. +The method also converts object-dtype arrays (which may contain Python `None`) to +`float` before applying the mask. +The original count is returned as the third value so that `check_size_initial_design()` +can report how many points were lost. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], n_initial=5) +X0 = np.array([[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0], [0.0, 0.0]]) +y0 = np.array([5.0, np.nan, 0.0]) +X0_clean, y0_clean, n_original = opt.rm_NA_values(X0, y0) +assert X0_clean.shape == (2, 2) +assert len(y0_clean) == 2

Size Validation (`check_size_initial_design()`) + +```python +min_required = min(n_initial, 3 if n_dim > 1 else 2) +if len(y0) < min_required: + raise ValueError(...) +``` + +Before fitting the first surrogate, the optimizer verifies that enough valid initial +points remain. +The minimum accepted count is the smaller of `n_initial` and the surrogate's structural +minimum — 3 for multi-dimensional problems, 2 for one-dimensional ones. +If the filtered design falls below this threshold, a `ValueError` is raised with a +diagnostic message. +The threshold adapts to the user's intent: when `n_initial` was set to 2, only 2 points +are required; the structural minimum only applies when more points were requested than +survived filtering. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], n_initial=10) + +y0_ok = np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0])

AssertionError("Expected ValueError not raised") +except ValueError as e: + print(f"Caught expected error: {e}") +print("check_size_initial_design check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 6 — Storage Initialisation (`init_storage()`) + +```python +self.X_ = self.inverse_transform_X(X0.copy()) +self.y_ = y0.copy() +self.n_iter_ = 0 +``` + +`init_storage()` populates the two primary data arrays that persist throughout the run. +`X_` is stored in natural (original) scale by applying `inverse_transform_X()` to the +internally scaled design; `y_` is stored as-is. +The iteration counter `n_iter_` is reset to zero. +All subsequent storage operations in the main loop append to these arrays rather than +replacing them, so the complete evaluation history is available at the end of the run. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=lambda X: np.sum(X**2, axis=1), + bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], n_initial=3) +X0 = np.array([[1.0, 2.0], [0.0, 0.0], [3.0, -1.0]]) +y0 = np.array([5.0, 0.0, 10.0]) +opt.init_storage(X0, y0) +print(f"X_ shape : {opt.X_.shape}") +print(f"y_ : {opt.y_}") +print(f"n_iter_ : {opt.n_iter_}") +assert opt.X_.shape == (3, 2) +assert opt.n_iter_ == 0 +print("init_storage check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 7 — Statistics Update (`update_stats()`) + +```python +self.min_y = np.min(self.y_) +self.min_X = self.X_[np.argmin(self.y_)] +self.counter = len(self.y_) +``` + +`update_stats()` refreshes the summary statistics derived from the current `X_` and +`y_` arrays. +It always sets `min_y`, `min_X`, and `counter`. +When the problem is noisy (`repeats_initial > 1` or `repeats_surrogate > 1`), it +additionally computes per-point means and variances via `aggregate_mean_var()`, +populating `mean_X`, `mean_y`, `var_y`, `min_mean_X`, `min_mean_y`, and `min_var_y`. +The method is called during setup — after `init_storage()` — and once per iteration +inside the main loop after new points have been appended. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + max_iter=10, n_initial=5, seed=0) +opt.optimize() +print(f"counter : {opt.counter}") +print(f"min_y : {opt.min_y:.6f}") +assert opt.counter == 10 +assert np.isclose(opt.min_y, np.min(opt.y_)) +print("update_stats check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 8 — TensorBoard Logging of the Initial Design (`_init_tensorboard()`) + +```python +if self.tb_writer is not None: + for i in range(len(self.y_)): + self._write_tensorboard_hparams(self.X_[i], self.y_[i]) + self._write_tensorboard_scalars() +``` + +`_init_tensorboard()` logs each point of the initial design to TensorBoard as a +separate hyperparameter run, together with global scalar summaries. +When `tensorboard_log=False` (the default), the writer is `None` and the method is a +no-op with no runtime cost. +When logging is enabled and no writer exists yet, `_init_tensorboard()` creates the +`SummaryWriter`, choosing a timestamped directory if `tensorboard_path` was not +specified. +This lazy creation avoids producing stale log directories for runs that fail during +initialisation. + +```{python} +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5)], tensorboard_log=False) +opt.optimize() +assert opt.tb_writer is None +print("TensorBoard disabled: writer not created.") +print("_init_tensorboard check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 9 — Initial Best (`get_best_xy_initial_design()`) + +```python +best_idx = np.argmin(self.y_) +self.best_x_ = self.X_[best_idx].copy() +self.best_y_ = self.y_[best_idx] +``` + +After the initial design is stored and its statistics computed, the point with the +minimum objective value is identified and written to `best_x_` and `best_y_`. +These two attributes define the running best solution, updated by +`_update_best_main_loop()` in every subsequent iteration. +When `verbose=True`, the initial best is printed; for noisy problems the mean best +(`min_mean_y`) is also reported alongside the raw minimum. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], n_initial=5, verbose=False) +opt.X_ = np.array([[1.0, 2.0], [0.0, 0.0], [2.0, 1.0]]) +opt.y_ = np.array([5.0, 0.0, 5.0]) +opt.get_best_xy_initial_design() +assert np.array_equal(opt.best_x_, [0.0, 0.0]) +assert opt.best_y_ == 0.0 +print(f"best_x_ : {opt.best_x_}") +print(f"best_y_ : {opt.best_y_}") +print("get_best_xy_initial_design check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 10 — Main Iteration Loop (`_run_sequential_loop()`) + +```python +while len(self.y_) < effective_max_iter and \ + time.time() < timeout_start + max_time * 60: + self.n_iter_ += 1 + self._fit_scheduler() + X_ocba = self.apply_ocba() + x_next = self.suggest_next_infill_point() + x_next_repeated = self.update_repeats_infill_points(x_next) + if X_ocba is not None: + x_next_repeated = append(X_ocba, x_next_repeated,

self.update_storage(x_next_repeated, y_next) + self.update_stats() + self._update_best_main_loop(x_next_repeated, y_next, start_time=timeout_start) +``` + +`_run_sequential_loop()` executes iterations until either the evaluation budget +(`effective_max_iter`) or the wall-clock limit (`max_time` minutes) is exhausted. +Each iteration increments `n_iter_`, fits the surrogate, selects and evaluates one or +more candidate points, and updates internal state. +A safety counter tracks consecutive failures: more than `max_iter` consecutive +NaN/inf evaluations triggers an early exit with `success=False`. + +The loop returns `("RESTART", result)` when `success_rate` has been zero for +`restart_after_n` consecutive iterations, signalling `optimize()` to begin a fresh run. +It returns `("FINISHED", result)` when the budget or time limit is reached. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=15, seed=0) +result = opt.optimize() +print(f"iterations : {result.nit}") +print(f"evaluations : {result.nfev}") +print(f"best : {result.fun:.6f}") +assert result.nfev == 15 +assert result.success +print("_run_sequential_loop check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 11 — Surrogate Fitting (`_fit_scheduler()`) + +```python +self._fit_scheduler() +``` + +At the start of each iteration, the surrogate model is refitted to the current training +window. +`_fit_scheduler()` selects the most recent `window_size` observations according to +`selection_method` (default `"distant"`) and calls the surrogate's `fit()` method. +When a list of surrogates was supplied at construction, one surrogate is chosen +probabilistically according to `prob_surrogate` before fitting, and per-surrogate +point caps from `_max_surrogate_points_list` are respected. + +```{python} +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=15, window_size=10, seed=0) +result = opt.optimize() +print(f"window_size : {opt.window_size}") +print(f"evaluations : {result.nfev}") +assert opt.window_size == 10 +print("_fit_scheduler check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 12 — OCBA Re-evaluations (`apply_ocba()`) + +```python +X_ocba = self.apply_ocba() +``` + +`apply_ocba()` implements Optimal Computing Budget Allocation for noisy objective +functions. +When `ocba_delta > 0`, it identifies the `ocba_delta` best-mean points and schedules +additional evaluations at those locations, returning them as `X_ocba`. +These points are concatenated with the acquisition candidate before the objective call, +so that noisy regions near the current optimum receive extra replication. +When `ocba_delta == 0` (the default), the method returns `None` and adds no overhead. + +```{python} +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=10, ocba_delta=0, seed=0) +result = opt.optimize() +assert opt.ocba_delta == 0 +print(f"ocba_delta : {opt.ocba_delta} (no OCBA overhead)") +print("apply_ocba check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 13 — Candidate Generation (`suggest_next_infill_point()`) + +```python +x_next = self.suggest_next_infill_point() +``` + +`suggest_next_infill_point()` runs the acquisition function to identify the most +promising candidate for the next objective evaluation. +The acquisition strategy is controlled by `acquisition` (default `"y"`, minimising the +surrogate prediction directly). +The acquisition optimiser (default `"differential_evolution"`) searches the +transformed, reduced search space using the bounds `[lower, upper]`. +When the optimiser fails — no improvement found or a numerical issue — the strategy +selected by `acquisition_failure_strategy` takes effect; `"random"` (the default) +draws a point uniformly at random. + +```{python} +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=10, acquisition="ei", seed=0) +result = opt.optimize() +assert opt.acquisition == "ei" +print(f"acquisition : {opt.acquisition}") +print(f"best : {result.fun:.6f}") +print("suggest_next_infill_point check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 14 — Repeat Infill Points (`update_repeats_infill_points()`) + +```python +x_next_repeated = self.update_repeats_infill_points(x_next) +``` + +When `repeats_surrogate > 1`, each surrogate-suggested candidate is evaluated multiple +times to reduce noise. +`update_repeats_infill_points()` tiles the candidate point `repeats_surrogate` times, +returning a 2-D array of shape `(repeats_surrogate, n_dim)`. +When `repeats_surrogate == 1` (the default) the array is simply `x_next` reshaped to +`(1, n_dim)`, adding no computational cost. + +```{python} +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=10, repeats_surrogate=1, seed=0) +result = opt.optimize() +assert opt.repeats_surrogate == 1 +assert result.nfev == 10 +print(f"repeats_surrogate : {opt.repeats_surrogate}") +print("update_repeats_infill_points check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 15 — Objective Evaluation (`evaluate_function()`) + +```python +y_next = self.evaluate_function(x_next_repeated) +``` + +`evaluate_function()` calls the user-supplied objective `fun` on the batch of +candidate points. +The input is always in transformed, reduced internal scale; +`evaluate_function()` applies `inverse_transform_X()` and `to_all_dim()` before the +call, so `fun` always receives points in natural scale with all dimensions present. +When `fun_mo2so` is set, the multi-objective output is first converted to a scalar +using that aggregation function. +The result is a 1-D array whose length equals the number of candidates evaluated. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)], + n_initial=5, max_iter=10, seed=0) +result = opt.optimize() +assert len(opt.y_) == 10

Handling for Sequential Evaluations (`_handle_NA_new_points()`) + +```python +x_next_repeated, y_next = self._handle_NA_new_points(x_next_repeated, y_next) +``` + +Unlike the initial design (where invalid points are removed), NaN or inf values +returned during the sequential loop are replaced with a penalty derived from the worst +finite value seen so far, scaled by a large factor. +This preserves the storage structure — one row in `X_` per candidate — and prevents +the surrogate from ignoring pathological regions. +If every candidate in the batch is invalid, the method returns `(None, None)`, causing +the iteration to be skipped and the consecutive-failure counter to increment. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function

after NaN handling.") +print("_handle_NA_new_points check passed.") +``` + +--- + +## Step 17 — Success Rate (`update_success_rate()`) + +```python +self.update_success_rate(y_next) +``` + +`update_success_rate()` measures whether the current iteration produced an improvement +relative to `best_y_`. +It records a binary outcome in `_success_history` and computes `success_rate` as the +fraction of recent iterations that showed improvement. +When `success_rate` remains at `0.0` for `restart_after_n` consecutive iterations, +`_zero_success_count` reaches the threshold and the loop returns `"RESTART"` to the +caller. + +```{python} +import numpy as np +from spotoptim import SpotOptim +from spotoptim.function import sphere + +opt = SpotOptim(fun=sphere, bounds=[(-5, 5), (-5, 5)],

+## Step 18 — Storage Update (`update_storage()`) + +```python +self.update_storage(x_next_repeated, y_next) +``` + +`update_storage()` appends newly evaluated candidates to `X_` and `y_`. +Like `init_storage()`, it converts points to natural scale via `inverse_transform_X()` +before storing. +After each call `X_.shape[0]` increases by the number of candidates evaluated — usually +1, but more when `repeats_surrogate > 1` or OCBA is active. +The growing `X_` and `y_` arrays serve both as the surrogate training window and as +the final output embedded in `OptimizeResult`. + +```{python}
