Installation

You can install HEBO from pypi by

pip install HEBO

You can also build from source code to obtain our latest update:

cd HEBO
pip install -e .

Documentation

Online documentation can be seen here

You can also build the documentation by your self

pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
cd doc
make html

Demo

import pandas as pd
import numpy  as np
from hebo.design_space.design_space import DesignSpace
from hebo.optimizers.hebo import HEBO

def obj(params : pd.DataFrame) -> np.ndarray:
    return ((params.values - 0.37)**2).sum(axis = 1).reshape(-1, 1)
        
space = DesignSpace().parse([{'name' : 'x', 'type' : 'num', 'lb' : -3, 'ub' : 3}])
opt   = HEBO(space)
for i in range(5):
    rec = opt.suggest(n_suggestions = 4)
    opt.observe(rec, obj(rec))
    print('After %d iterations, best obj is %.2f' % (i, opt.y.min()))

Auto Tuning via Sklearn Estimator

from sklearn.datasets import load_boston
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestRegressor
from sklearn.metrics import r2_score, mean_squared_error

from hebo.sklearn_tuner import sklearn_tuner

space_cfg = [
    {'name' : 'max_depth', 'type' : 'int', 'lb' : 1, 'ub' : 20},
    {'name' : 'min_samples_leaf', 'type' : 'num', 'lb' : 1e-4, 'ub' : 0.5},
    {'name' : 'max_features', 'type' : 'cat', 'categories' : ['auto', 'sqrt', 'log2']},
    {'name' : 'bootstrap', 'type' : 'bool'},
    {'name' : 'min_impurity_decrease', 'type' : 'pow', 'lb' : 1e-4, 'ub' : 1.0},
    ]
X, y   = load_boston(return_X_y = True)
result = sklearn_tuner(RandomForestRegressor, space_cfg, X, y, metric = r2_score, max_iter = 16)

Test

pytest -v test/ --cov ./bo --cov-report term-missing --cov-config ./test/.coveragerc

Reproduce Experimental Results

  • See archived_submissions/hebo, which is the exact submission that won the NeurIPS2020 Black-Box Optimsation Challenge.
  • Use run_local.sh in bbo_challenge_starter_kit to reproduce bayesmark experiments, you can just drop archived_submissions/hebo to the example_submissions directory.
  • The MACEBO in bo.optimizers.mace is the same optimiser, with same hyperparameters but a modified interface (bayesmark dependency removed).

Features

  • Continuous, integer and categorical design parameters.
  • Constrained and multi-objective optimsation.
  • Contextual optimsation.
  • Multiple surrogate models including GP, RF and BNN.
  • Modular and flexible Bayesian Optimisation building blocks.
