Omnisolver is a collection of Binary Quadratic Model solvers and a framework for implementing them.

Installation and getting started

Installing this package alone won't give you much benefit, unless of course you want to develop new omnisolver plugins. In that case, you can install omnisolver from pip:

pip install omnisolver

Algorithms for solving QUBO and Ising models are implemented in Omnisolver plugins. For instance, to use parallel tempering algorithm you need to install the omnisolver-pt package:

pip install omnisolver-pt

You can run the omnisolver pt -h command to see the command line usage.
