"# Running Tune experiments with HyperOpt\n",
"\n",
"In this tutorial we introduce HyperOpt, while running a simple Ray Tune experiment. Tunes Search Algorithms integrate with HyperOpt and, as a result, allow you to seamlessly scale up a Hyperopt optimization process - without sacrificing performance.\n",
"\n",
"HyperOpt provides gradient/derivative-free optimization able to handle noise over the objective landscape, including evolutionary, bandit, and Bayesian optimization algorithms. Nevergrad internally supports search spaces which are continuous, discrete or a mixture of thereof. It also provides a library of functions on which to test the optimization algorithms and compare with other benchmarks.\n",
"\n",
"In this example we minimize a simple objective to briefly demonstrate the usage of HyperOpt with Ray Tune via `HyperOptSearch`. It's useful to keep in mind that despite the emphasis on machine learning experiments, Ray Tune optimizes any implicit or explicit objective. Here we assume `hyperopt==0.2.5` library is installed. To learn more, please refer to [HyperOpt website](http://hyperopt.github.io/hyperopt).\n",
"\n",
"We include a important example on conditional search spaces (stringing together relationships among hyperparameters)."
