.. currentmodule:: skopt
Problem statement
Optimization runs can take a very long time and even run for multiple days.
If for some reason the process has to be interrupted results are irreversibly
lost, and the routine has to start over from the beginning.
With the help of the :class:callbacks.CheckpointSaver callback the optimizer's current state
can be saved after each iteration, allowing to restart from that point at any
time.
This is useful, for example,
if you don't know how long the process will take and cannot hog computational resources forever
if there might be system failures due to shaky infrastructure (or colleagues...)
if you want to adjust some parameters and continue with the already obtained results

    # When this example is run with sphinx gallery, it breaks the pickling
    # capacity for multiprocessing backend so we have to modify the way we
    # define our functions. This has nothing to do with the example.

              x0=[-20.],                     # the starting point
              acq_func="LCB",              # the acquisition function (optional)
              n_calls=10,                   # the number of evaluations of f including at x0
              n_random_starts=0,           # the number of random initialization points

Explanation: Simple example
We will use pretty much the same optimization problem as in the
sphx_glr_auto_examples_bayesian-optimization.py
notebook. Additionally we will instantiate the :class:callbacks.CheckpointSaver
and pass it to the minimizer:

from skopt import load
res = load('./checkpoint.pkl')
res.fun
Explanation: Now let's assume this did not finish at once but took some long time: you
started this on Friday night, went out for the weekend and now, Monday
morning, you're eager to see the results. However, instead of the
notebook server you only see a blank page and your colleague Garry
tells you that he had had an update scheduled for Sunday noon – who
doesn't like updates?
:class:gp_minimize did not finish, and there is no res variable with the
actual results!
Restoring the last checkpoint
Luckily we employed the :class:callbacks.CheckpointSaver and can now restore the latest
result with :class:skopt.load
(see sphx_glr_auto_examples_store-and-load-results.py for more
information on that)
End of explanation
x0 = res.x_iters
y0 = res.func_vals
gp_minimize(obj_fun,            # the function to minimize
              [(-20.0, 20.0)],    # the bounds on each dimension of x
              x0=x0,              # already examined values for x
              y0=y0,              # observed values for x0
              acq_func="LCB",     # the acquisition function (optional)
              n_calls=10,         # the number of evaluations of f including at x0
              n_random_starts=0,  # the number of random initialization points
              callback=[checkpoint_saver],
              random_state=777);

The previous results can then be used to continue the optimization process:
