KrylovJacobian#
- class scipy.optimize.KrylovJacobian(rdiff=None, method='lgmres', inner_maxiter=20, inner_M=None, outer_k=10, **kw)[source]#
- Find a root of a function, using Krylov approximation for inverse Jacobian. - This method is suitable for solving large-scale problems. - Parameters:
- %(params_basic)s
- rdifffloat, optional
- Relative step size to use in numerical differentiation. 
- methodstr or callable, optional
- Krylov method to use to approximate the Jacobian. Can be a string, or a function implementing the same interface as the iterative solvers in - scipy.sparse.linalg. If a string, needs to be one of:- 'lgmres',- 'gmres',- 'bicgstab',- 'cgs',- 'minres',- 'tfqmr'.- The default is - scipy.sparse.linalg.lgmres.
- inner_maxiterint, optional
- Parameter to pass to the “inner” Krylov solver: maximum number of iterations. Iteration will stop after maxiter steps even if the specified tolerance has not been achieved. 
- inner_MLinearOperator or InverseJacobian
- Preconditioner for the inner Krylov iteration. Note that you can use also inverse Jacobians as (adaptive) preconditioners. For example, - >>> from scipy.optimize import BroydenFirst, KrylovJacobian >>> from scipy.optimize import InverseJacobian >>> jac = BroydenFirst() >>> kjac = KrylovJacobian(inner_M=InverseJacobian(jac)) - If the preconditioner has a method named ‘update’, it will be called as - update(x, f)after each nonlinear step, with- xgiving the current point, and- fthe current function value.
- outer_kint, optional
- Size of the subspace kept across LGMRES nonlinear iterations. See - scipy.sparse.linalg.lgmresfor details.
- inner_kwargskwargs
- Keyword parameters for the “inner” Krylov solver (defined with method). Parameter names must start with the inner_ prefix which will be stripped before passing on the inner method. See, e.g., - scipy.sparse.linalg.gmresfor details.
- %(params_extra)s
 
 - See also - root
- Interface to root finding algorithms for multivariate functions. See - method='krylov'in particular.

 - Notes - This function implements a Newton-Krylov solver. The basic idea is to compute the inverse of the Jacobian with an iterative Krylov method. These methods require only evaluating the Jacobian-vector products, which are conveniently approximated by a finite difference: \[J v \approx (f(x + \omega*v/|v|) - f(x)) / \omega\]- Due to the use of iterative matrix inverses, these methods can deal with large nonlinear problems. - SciPy’s - scipy.sparse.linalgmodule offers a selection of Krylov solvers to choose from. The default here is lgmres, which is a variant of restarted GMRES iteration that reuses some of the information obtained in the previous Newton steps to invert Jacobians in subsequent steps.- For a review on Newton-Krylov methods, see for example [1], and for the LGMRES sparse inverse method, see [2]. - References [1]- C.
