SampleEvaluator

LocalSampleEvaluator

Evaluate samples locally using a native executable/script or a java class

<SampleEvaluator id="local" type="ibbt.sumo.SampleEvaluators.LocalSampleEvaluator">
   <!-- Maximum number of times to resubmit a point (e.g., in case something went wrong) -->
   <Option key="maxResubmissions" value="1"/>
   <!-- If a sample takes longer than "sampleTimeout*average evaluation time of one sample" 
   seconds to evaluate it is removed from the pending list (set to -1 to disable) -->
   <Option key="sampleTimeout" value="-1"/>
   <!-- Can be set to "java" for java executables, to "external" for platform-specific
        binaries and to nothing at all for auto-detection.-->
   <Option key="simulatorType" value=""/>
   <!-- Can be set to a number of seconds, if one simulator evaluation exceeds this timeout,
        the simulation is aborted -->
   <!-- <Option key="timeout" value="12"/>
 -->
   <!-- Number of samples to evaluate concurrently, useful if you have a dual or multi-core machine -->
   <Option key="threadCount" value="1"/>
</SampleEvaluator>

MatlabSampleEvaluator

Evaluate samples using a matlab script (ie. your simulator is a matlab script)

<SampleEvaluator id="matlab" type="ibbt.sumo.SampleEvaluators.matlab.MatlabSampleEvaluator">
   <!-- Maximum number of times to resubmit a point (e.g., in case something went wrong) -->
   <Option key="maxResubmissions" value="1"/>
   <!-- If a sample takes longer than "sampleTimeout*average evaluation time of one sample" 
   seconds to evaluate it is removed from the pending list (set to -1 to disable) -->
   <Option key="sampleTimeout" value="-1"/>
</SampleEvaluator>

matlabClass

Evaluate samples using a matlab class

<SampleEvaluator id="matlabClass" type="ibbt.sumo.SampleEvaluators.matlab.MatlabClassSampleEvaluator">
   <!-- Maximum number of times to resubmit a point (e.g., in case something went wrong) -->
   <Option key="maxResubmissions" value="1"/>

GriddedDatasetSampleEvaluator

Evaluate samples using a gridded dataset
