[IMP-users] Error in Conjugate Gradient Optimization



Hi there,

I am currently using IMP to generate several models in which I apply a set of 62 restraints, plus ExcludeVolume (I work with XYZR sphere decorators). When I try to run the script 1000 times in order to generate 1000 different models, it work. However, when I try to run it 50.000 times, it came up with an error:

The script does the following:
o = IMP.core.ConjugateGradients(model_to_optimize)
o.set_scoring_function(scoring_function) # this method return the scoring function that is being used
o.optimize(num_iterations) # The maximum number of iteration of the optimizer to perform.
# Returns the final score


When I try to run it a lot of times, the following error come up:

What does it mean? Is it a problem on the max_steps of the Optimizer function? Why is this error comming up in the iteration 6000 ,e.g and not in the first one?

Thanks you!

Sincerely,

Altair
