Bayesian Optimization by Density-Ratio Estimation
Project description
BORE: Bayesian Optimization as Density-Ratio Estimation
A minimalistic implementation of BORE: Bayesian Optimization as Density-Ratio Estimation [1] in Python 3 and TensorFlow 2.
Getting Started
Install my-project with npm
$ pip install bore[tf]
With GPU acceleration:
$ pip install bore[tf-gpu]
With support for HpBandSter plugin
$ pip install bore[tf,hpbandster]
Usage/Examples
from bore.models import MaximizableSequential
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense
# build model
classifier = MaximizableSequential()
classifier.add(Dense(16, activation="relu"))
classifier.add(Dense(16, activation="relu"))
classifier.add(Dense(1, activation="sigmoid"))
# compile model
classifier.compile(optimizer="adam", loss="binary_crossentropy")
The optimization loop can be implemented as follows:
import numpy as np
features = []
targets = []
# initial design
features.extend(features_init)
targets.extend(targets_init)
for i in range(num_iterations):
# construct classification problem
X = np.vstack(features)
y = np.hstack(targets)
tau = np.quantile(y, q=0.25)
z = np.less(y, tau)
# update classifier
classifier.fit(X, z, epochs=200, batch_size=64)
# suggest new candidate
x_next = classifier.argmax(method="L-BFGS-B", num_start_points=3, bounds=bounds)
# evaluate blackbox function
y_next = blackbox.evaluate(x_next)
# update dataset
features.append(x_next)
targets.append(y_next)
Features
BORE-MLP: BORE based on a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) (i.e. a fully-connected neural network) classifier
