0.12.0

Prelude

The entire C++ library has been rewritten for performance and consistency.

New Features

• New dimod::abc::QuadraticModelBase abstract base class.

• Better performance for linear models.

• Add dimod.cyqmbase.cyQMBase_template Cython class to serve as an abstract base class for Cython quadratic models.

• Break dimod/libcpp.pxd into a full Cython subpackage to mirror the structure under dimod/include/. This allows for better organization, and less need to recompile all Cython files when changing parts of the C++ library. Packages that depend on dimod are still encouraged to use the from dimod.libcpp cimport ... syntax.

• Build wheels for Python 3.11.

• Add C++ dimod::ConstrainedQuadraticModel class.

• Add C++ ConstrainedQuadraticModel.add_constraint() overload that allows a user to move a binary quadratic model or quadratic model as a constraint.

• Add C++ ConstrainedQuadraticModel.constraint_weak_ptr() method.

• Make BinaryQuadraticModel.vartype callable. This allows for more uniform syntax between binary quadratic models, quadratic models and constrained quadratic models.

• Replace current ConstrainedQuadraticModel implementation with one implemented in Cython.

• Add ConstrainedQuadraticModel.clear() method.

Bug Fixes

• Fix a performance regression introduced in 0.10.0 when loading linear binary quadratic models from files.

• Fix the handling of self-loops in dimod::Expression::add_quadratic() and similar methods.

• Fix C++ ConstrainedQuadraticModel.remove_variable() method. Previously it would segmentation fault.

Upgrade Notes

• Rewrite dimod::QuadraticModelBase and move it to dimod::abc::QuadraticModelBase in abc.h.

• Move dimod::Vartype, dimod::vartype_info, and dimod::vartype_limits` tovartypes.h``.

• Remove the dimod::Neighborhood class.

• Remove iterators.h.

• Move dimod::BinaryQuadraticModel to binary_quadratic_model.h.

• Remove dimod.binary.cybqm.cyBQMBase class.

• Remove dimod.quadratic.cyqm.cyQMBase class.

• Build manylinux2014 wheels. Previously we built manylinux2010.

• Build arm64 and x86_64 wheels for macos. Previously we built x86_64 and universal2.

Deprecation Notes

• Deprecate the cascade keyword argument in ConstrainedQuadraticModel.fix_variable().

• Deprecate the cascade keyword argument in ConstrainedQuadraticModel.fix_variables().
