Detailed Description

Base class for all samplers.

A sampler takes a Model and searches for good configurations, given the optimizable parameters and the scoring function in the Model and extra information that can be provided. Typically, the current configuration of the model is ignored.

Typically a sampler works by using one or more Optimizer types to search for configurations which minimize the scoring function.
