Abstract
An optimization device includes: processing circuits each configured to: hold a first value of a neuron of an Ising model; and perform a process to determine whether to permit updating of the first value based on information of the Ising model and information about a target neuron; a control circuit configured to: set, while causing a portion of the processing circuits to perform the process for a partial neuron group, information to be used for the process for a first neuron other than the partial neuron group in a first processing circuit; cause a second processing circuit among the portion of the processing circuits to inactivate the process; and cause the first processing circuit to start the process for the first neuron; and an update neuron selection circuit configured to: select the target neuron from one or more update permissible neurons; and update the value of the target neuron.
