Bayesian Topic Regression for Causal Inference

Maximilian Ahrens, Julian Ashwin, Jan-Peter Calliess +1

Causal inference using observational text data is becoming increasingly popular in many research areas. This paper presents the Bayesian Topic Regression (BTR) model that uses both…

Tuning Mixed Input Hyperparameters on the Fly for Efficient Population Based AutoRL

Jack Parker-Holder, Vu Nguyen, Shaan Desai +1

Despite a series of recent successes in reinforcement learning (RL), many RL algorithms remain sensitive to hyperparameters. As such, there has recently been interest in the field…

Think Global and Act Local: Bayesian Optimisation over High-Dimensional Categorical and Mixed Search Spaces

Xingchen Wan, Vu Nguyen, Huong Ha +3

High-dimensional black-box optimisation remains an important yet notoriously challenging problem. Despite the success of Bayesian optimisation methods on continuous domains, domain…

Incorporating Expert Prior Knowledge into Experimental Design via Posterior Sampling

Cheng Li, Sunil Gupta, Santu Rana +3

Scientific experiments are usually expensive due to complex experimental preparation and processing. Experimental design is therefore involved with the task of finding the optimal…

Bayesian Optimisation over Multiple Continuous and Categorical Inputs

Binxin Ru, Ahsan S. Alvi, Vu Nguyen +2

Efficient optimisation of black-box problems that comprise both continuous and categorical inputs is important, yet poses significant challenges. We propose a new approach, Continu…

Knowing The What But Not The Where in Bayesian Optimization

Vu Nguyen, Michael A. Osborne

Bayesian optimization has demonstrated impressive success in finding the optimum input x* and output f* = f(x*) = max f(x) of a black-box function f. In some applications, however,…
