Parallel Solver Racing (Operator)

Runs multiple solvers and returns the best result (highest log-likelihood). Useful when unsure which method will work best for a given problem.

Usage

s1 %|% s2

Arguments

s1

First solver function

s2

Second solver function

Value

A new solver function that runs both and picks the best

Details

For parallel execution or more than 2 solvers, use race.

Examples

# Race gradient-based vs derivative-free
strategy <- gradient_ascent() %|% nelder_mead()

# Race multiple methods
strategy <- gradient_ascent() %|% bfgs() %|% nelder_mead()
