dwave.system.composites.ReverseAdvanceComposite.sample

ReverseAdvanceComposite.sample(bqm, anneal_schedules=None, **parameters)

Sample the binary quadratic model using reverse annealing along a given set of anneal schedules.

Parameters:

• bqm (dimod.BinaryQuadraticModel) – Binary quadratic model to be sampled from.
• anneal_schedules (list of lists) – Anneal schedules in order of submission. Each schedule is formatted as a list of [time, s] pairs
• initial_state (dict, optional) – the state to reverse anneal from. If not provided, it will be randomly generated
• **parameters – Parameters for the sampling method, specified by the child sampler.

Returns:

dimod.SampleSet that has initial_state and schedule_index fields.

Examples

This example runs 100 reverse anneals each for three schedules on a problem constructed by setting random \(\pm 1\) values on a clique (complete graph) of 15 nodes, minor-embedded on a D-Wave system using the DWaveCliqueSampler sampler.
