optuna.distributions.LogUniformDistribution

class optuna.distributions.LogUniformDistribution(low, high)

A uniform distribution in the log domain.

This object is instantiated by suggest_float() with log=True, and passed to samplers in general.

Parameters

• low (float) –

• high (float) –

low

Lower endpoint of the range of the distribution. low is included in the range. low must be larger than 0. low must be less than or equal to high.

high

Upper endpoint of the range of the distribution. high is included in the range. high must be greater than or equal to low.

Warning
