Create maximisation objective #25

Closed TobyBoyne closed 11 months ago

TobyBoyne commented 1 year ago

Provide an easier user interface for maximisation problems.

Essentially just multiplies the objective function evaluations and the predicted values by -1, to turn a minimisation problem into a maximisation problem. Provides the ProblemConfig.add_max_function() for ease of use. An example notebook and some test cases are provided.
