Bayesian Optimisation Reading Group
War-BORG - The Warwick Bayesian-Optimisation Reading Group is an academic research study group based at the University of Warwick, UK. The research group consists of PhD students and professors with Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science backgrounds, including members of the Complexity Science Dept., Warwick Business School and Mathematics Institute.
Previous Reading Groups:
03/06/2020
Laura Guzman presented her work on ...
27/05/2020
Juan Ungredda presented his recent work on BICO, an algorithm recently submitted for publication that balances the improvement of objective value prediction with improvement of input uncertainty in order to allocate search budget accordingly.
20/05/2020
Hoai Phuong Le presented recent work on Bayesian Optimisation for finding the robust solution of a black-box function. The algorithm uses a variant of the well-known Knowledge Gradient as the acquisition function.
13/05/2020
Michael Pearce presented his recent work on ConBO, an algorithm recently submitted for publication that combines 2 methods of computing well-known Knowledge Gradient: by discretisation and by simulation.
06/05/2020
Sebastian Gonzalez presented his work on multiobjective Bayesian Optimisation.
22/04/2020
Yuri Marca presented a paper ...
15/04/2020
Hoai Phuong Le presented some papers about Entropy Search, another well-known acquisition function for Bayesian Optimisation.
