add_condition(condition: ConfigSpace.conditions.ConditionComponent) → ConfigSpace.conditions.ConditionComponent#

Add a condition to the configuration space. Check if adding the condition is legal:

The parent in a condition statement must exist

The internal array keeps track of all edges which must be added to the DiGraph; if the checks don’t raise any Exception, these edges are finally added at the end of the function.

Parameters: condition (Conditions) – Condition to add
Returns: Same condition as input
Return type: Conditions

add_conditions(conditions: List[ConfigSpace.conditions.ConditionComponent]) → List[ConfigSpace.conditions.ConditionComponent]#

Add a list of conditions to the configuration space. They must be legal. Take a look at add_condition().

Parameters: conditions (list(Conditions)) – collection of conditions to add
Returns: Same as input conditions
Return type: list(Conditions)

add_configuration_space(prefix: unicode, configuration_space: ConfigurationSpace, delimiter: unicode = ':', parent_hyperparameter: ConfigSpace.hyperparameters.Hyperparameter = None) → ConfigurationSpace #

Combine two configuration space by adding one the other configuration space. The contents of the configuration space, which should be added, are renamed to prefix + delimiter + old_name.

Parameters

prefix (str) – The prefix for the renamed hyperparameter | conditions | forbidden clauses
configuration_space (ConfigurationSpace) – The configuration space which should be added
delimiter (str, optional) – Defaults to ‘:’
parent_hyperparameter (Hyperparameters, optional) – Adds for each new hyperparameter the condition, that parent_hyperparameter is active

Returns

check_configuration(configuration: ConfigSpace.configuration_space.Configuration) → None #

estimate_size() → Union[float, int]#

Estimate the size of the current configuration space (i.e. unique configurations).

This is np.inf in case if there is a single hyperparameter of size np.inf (i.e. a UniformFloatHyperparameter), otherwise it is the product of the size of all hyperparameters. The function correctly guesses the number of unique configurations if there are no condition and forbidden statements in the configuration spaces. Otherwise, this is an upper bound. Use generate_grid() to generate all valid configurations if required.

Returns
