In this paper, we propose a new approach to Bayesian optimization called GP-MGC, which maximizes multiscale graph correlation with respect to the global maximum to determine the next query point. We present our evaluation of GP-MGC in applications involving both synthetic benchmark functions and real-world datasets and demonstrate that GP-MGC performs as well as or even better than state-of-the-art methods such as max-value entropy search and GP-UCB.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-03-17T04:35:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "efficient bayesian optimization", "maximizes multiscale graph correlation", "synthetic benchmark functions", "max-value entropy search", "evaluation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
