Serialization

All classes in BoFire are serializable and can be saved to JSON formats. These tutorials demonstrate how to serialize and deserialize BoFire objects for storage, sharing, and integration with RESTful APIs.

Available Tutorials

Model Serialization

Learn how to serialize and deserialize surrogate models.

Strategy Serialization

Save and load optimization strategies for reproducibility and deployment.

Why Serialization Matters

Serialization is crucial for:

Reproducibility: Save the exact configuration of your optimization runs
Collaboration: Share strategies and models with team members
API Integration: Seamlessly integrate BoFire into RESTful services
Version Control: Track changes in experimental designs over time
Deployment: Move configurations from development to production environments
