Examples ======== The example below although written for Linux, should work on another operating system if adjusted accordingly. Tuning DE and PSO to the CEC'05 problems under multiple OFE budgets ------------------------------------------------------------------- For this example, a virtual machine running Ubuntu 14.04 will be setup to tune DE and PSO to the CEC'05 problems using tMOPSO. On your new virtual machine, with a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 installed, in a terminal :: $ sudo apt-get install python-numpy python-scipy python-matplotlib # python modules which optTune depends on $ sudo apt-get install python-setuptools #install optTune for the local user $ easy_install --user optTune f2py and batchOpenMPI are used for speed: f2py as to easily interface with the DE and PSO fortran codes, and batchOpenMPI for parallelization. For these you will need the following software :: $ sudo apt-get install gfortran openmpi-bin openmpi-common libopenmpi-dev $ easy_install --user mpi4py $ easy_install --user batchOpenMPI Next download and extract the CEC 2005 tuning example files located at `cec05examples.tar.gz <cec05examples.tar.gz>`_ :: $ wget https://pythonhosted.org/optTune/cec05examples.tar.gz $ tar -xf cec05examples.tar.gz $ cd cec05examples/ $ ls The first thing to do is to compile and then validate the fortran codes :: $ ./compile.sh $ sudo apt-get install octave #octave is used in the testing scripts ... $ ./test_cec2005problems.py Examine the testing data, and if acceptable :: # to tune DE using 4 processors $ mpirun -np 4 tune_DE_via_tMOPSO.py # or to tune PSO $ mpirun -np 4 tune_PSO_via_tMOPSO.py Have fun.
