7.5. ParAMSResults

Important

You should not initialize ParAMSResults yourself. Instead, use the corresponding ParAMSJob’s results attribute to access the results.

To get started, see the tutorial Getting Started: Python.

class ParAMSResults(*args, **kwargs)

Use this class to access results from a finished ParAMS job (the job may have been run either with the GUI or using the ParAMSJob Python class).

You should not create an instance of this class yourself. Instead, create a ParAMSJob, which will have a results attribute of type ParAMSResults.

Example:

job = ParAMSJob.load_external("/path/to/jobname.results")
print(type(job.results)) # job.results is of type ParAMSResults
print(job.results.get_loss()) # print the best loss function value for the training set
print(job.results.path) # "/path/to/jobname.results"
__init__(*args, **kwargs)

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

get_loss(source: str = 'best', data_set: str = 'training_set', optimizer: int = None)float

Get the loss function value. Works for tasks ‘optimization’ and ‘singlepoint’.

source: str

‘best’, ‘latest’, ‘validation_set_best_parameters’, etc. Ignored if the task is ‘singlepoint’.

data_set: str

‘training_set’ or ‘validation_set’. Will read results from the directory training_set_results etc.

optimizer: int or None

If integer, read from the corresponding optimizer_XXX directory. If None, read from the “overall” (global) results. Ignored if the task is ‘singlepoint’.

Returns: float

The loss function value (loss.txt)

get_evaluation_number(source: str = 'best', data_set: str = 'training_set', optimizer: int = None)int

Get the (global) evaluation number.

Returns: int

The other arguments are described for ParAMSResults.get_loss()

get_running_active_parameters(data_set: str = 'training_set', optimizer: int = None)tuple

Get the running active parameters from running_active_parameters.txt.

optimizer: int or None

If an integer, only get the running active parameters for that optimizer. Otherwise, get the parameters for all optimizers.

Returns: 2-tuple (evaluation_id, parameters) where evaluation_id is a list of float, and parameters is a dict where the keys are the parameter names and the values are a list of float (of the same length as evaluation_id)
