Represents the volumetric energy density of a battery cell, calculated based on a normalised discharge from upper to lower voltage limits. The goal is to maximise the energy density, which is achieved by minimizing the negative energy density reported by this class.

Inherits all parameters and attributes from DesignCost.

_evaluate(x, grad=None)[source]#

Computes the cost function for the energy density.

Parameters:
  • x (array) – The parameter set for which to compute the cost.

  • grad (array, optional) – Gradient information, not used in this method.

Returns:

The negative volumetric energy density or infinity in case of infeasible parameters.

Return type:

float

class pybop.XNES(x0, sigma0=0.1, bounds=None)[source]#

Bases: pints.XNES

Implements the Exponential Natural Evolution Strategy (XNES) optimiser from PINTS.

XNES is an evolutionary algorithm that samples from a multivariate normal distribution, which is updated iteratively to fit the distribution of successful solutions.

Parameters:
  • x0 (array_like) – The initial parameter vector to optimize.

  • sigma0 (float, optional) – Initial standard deviation of the sampling distribution, defaults to 0.1.

  • bounds (dict, optional) – A dictionary with ‘lower’ and ‘upper’ keys containing arrays for lower and upper bounds on the parameters. If None, no bounds are enforced.

pybop.plot2d(cost_or_optim, gradient=False, bounds=None, steps=10, show=True, **layout_kwargs)[source]#

Plot a 2D visualisation of a cost landscape using Plotly.

This function generates a contour plot representing the cost landscape for a provided callable cost function over a grid of parameter values within the specified bounds.

Parameters:
  • cost_or_optim (a callable cost function, pybop Cost or Optimisation object) – Either: - the cost function to be evaluated. Must accept a list of parameter values and return a cost value. - an Optimisation object which provides a specific optimisation trace overlaid on the cost landscape.

  • gradient (bool, optional) – If True, the gradient is shown (default: False).

  • bounds (numpy.ndarray, optional) – A 2x2 array specifying the [min, max] bounds for each parameter. If None, uses get_param_bounds.

  • steps (int, optional) – The number of intervals to divide the parameter space into along each dimension (default is 10).

  • show (bool, optional) – If True, the figure is shown upon creation (default: True).

  • **layout_kwargs (optional) – Valid Plotly layout keys and their values, e.g. xaxis_title=”Time [s]” or xaxis={“title”: “Time [s]”, “titlefont_size”: 18}.

Returns:

The Plotly figure object containing the cost landscape plot.

Return type:

plotly.graph_objs.Figure

Raises:

ValueError – If the cost function does not return a valid cost when called with a parameter list.

pybop.plot_convergence(optim, show=True, **layout_kwargs)[source]#

Returns:

fig – The Plotly figure object for the convergence plot.

Return type:

plotly.graph_objs.Figure
