Installation

To install the plugin run:

pip install omnisolver-pt

Command line usage

usage: omnisolver pt [-h] [--output OUTPUT] [--vartype {SPIN,BINARY}] [--num_replicas NUM_REPLICAS] [--num_pt_steps NUM_PT_STEPS]
                     [--num_sweeps NUM_SWEEPS] [--beta_min BETA_MIN] [--beta_max BETA_MAX]
                     input

Parallel tempering sampler

positional arguments:
  input                 Path of the input BQM file in COO format. If not specified, stdin is used.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --output OUTPUT       Path of the output file. If not specified, stdout is used.
  --vartype {SPIN,BINARY}
                        Variable type
