rosen#

scipy.optimize.rosen(x)[source] #

The Rosenbrock function.

The function computed is:

sum(100.0*(x[1:] - x[:-1]**2.0)**2.0 + (1 - x[:-1])**2.0)

Parameters:

xarray_like: 1-D array of points at which the Rosenbrock function is to be computed.

Returns:

ffloat: The value of the Rosenbrock function.

Notes

rosen has experimental support for Python Array API Standard compatible backends in addition to NumPy. Please consider testing these features by setting an environment variable SCIPY_ARRAY_API=1 and providing CuPy, PyTorch, JAX, or Dask arrays as array arguments. The following combinations of backend and device (or other capability) are supported.

Library	CPU	GPU
NumPy	✅	n/a
CuPy	n/a	✅
PyTorch	✅	✅
JAX	✅	✅
Dask	✅	n/a

See Support for the array API standard for more information.

Examples

>>> importnumpyasnp
>>> fromscipy.optimizeimport rosen
>>> X = 0.1 * np.arange(10)
>>> rosen(X)
76.56

For higher-dimensional input rosen broadcasts. In the following example, we use this to plot a 2D landscape. Note that rosen_hess does not broadcast in this manner.

>>> importmatplotlib.pyplotasplt
>>> frommpl_toolkits.mplot3dimport Axes3D
>>> x = np.linspace(-1, 1, 50)
>>> X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, x)
>>> ax = plt.subplot(111, projection='3d')
>>> ax.plot_surface(X, Y, rosen([X, Y]))
>>> plt.show()
