Bayesian Optimization

[ˈbeɪziən ˌɒptɪmaɪˈzeɪʃən]
Machine Learning
Last updated: December 9, 2024

Definition

A probabilistic approach to hyperparameter optimization that models the objective function using Gaussian processes.

Detailed Explanation

Bayesian optimization builds a probabilistic model of the objective function and uses it to select the most promising hyperparameters to evaluate next. It maintains a balance between exploration (trying new regions) and exploitation (focusing on regions known to give good results) through acquisition functions.

Use Cases

Hyperparameter tuning, Experimental design, Automated machine learning
