GeneticPy

GeneticPy is an optimizer that uses a genetic algorithm to quickly search through custom parameter spaces for optimal solutions.

Installation

GeneticPy requires Python 3.10+

pip install geneticpy

Development Workflow

This project uses uv for fast dependency management and hatchling as the build backend.

# Run tests
make test

# Build the package
make build

Optimize Example:

A brief example to get you started is included below:

import geneticpy

def loss_function(params):
  if params['type'] == 'add':
    return params['x'] + params['y']
  elif params['type'] == 'multiply':
    return params['x'] * params['y']

param_space = {'type': geneticpy.ChoiceDistribution(choice_list=['add', 'multiply']),
               'x': geneticpy.UniformDistribution(low=5, high=10, q=1),
               'y': geneticpy.GaussianDistribution(mean=0, standard_deviation=1)}

results = geneticpy.optimize(loss_function, param_space, size=200, generation_count=500, verbose=True)
best_params = results.best_params
loss = results.best_score
total_time = results.total_time
