摘要:

优化的最终目标是找到目标函数的最小值,然而,典型的主动优化准则往往忽略了最小值的不确定性。提出了一种新的全局优化准则和一种基于高斯过程的序贯主动学习策略,该准则是函数极小值的后验分布的不确定性的减小.它还可以灵活地合并多个全局极小化器。我们实现了一个易于处理的近似的标准,并证明了它获得的全局最小值准确相比,传统的贝叶斯优化标准。

英文摘要:

The ultimate goal of optimization is to find the minimizer of a target function.However, typical criteria for active optimization often ignore the uncertainty about the minimizer. We propose a novel criterion for global optimization and an associated sequential active learning strategy using Gaussian processes.Our criterion is the reduction of uncertainty in the posterior distribution of the function minimizer. It can also flexibly incorporate multiple global minimizers. We implement a tractable approximation of the criterion and demonstrate that it obtains the global minimizer accurately compared to conventional Bayesian optimization criteria.
