Self-tuning portfolio-based Bayesian optimization

作者:

Highlights:

• The work proposes a new portfolio based Bayesian Optimization method (SETUP-BO).

• SETUP-BO improves the performance of GP-Hedge while keeping its easiness to use.

• SETUP-BO uses a Thompson Sampling to autonomous tune all hyperparameters.

• The experiments showed that SETUP-BO is a valid alternative for various black box optimization tasks.
