Simple-regret rates and minimax optimality of fixed-prior expected improvement in Matérn and squared-exponential RKHSs

Emmanuel Vazquez, Sébastien Petit

We study expected improvement (EI) for minimizing a deterministic function in the RKHS of a continuous positive-semidefinite kernel on a nonempty compact set…

Relaxed Gaussian process interpolation: a goal-oriented approach to Bayesian optimization

Sébastien Petit, Julien Bect, Emmanuel Vazquez

This work presents a new procedure for obtaining predictive distributions in the context of Gaussian process (GP) modeling, with a relaxation of the interpolation constraints outsi…

Parameter selection in Gaussian process interpolation: an empirical study of selection criteria

Sébastien Petit, Julien Bect, Paul Feliot +1

This article revisits the fundamental problem of parameter selection for Gaussian process interpolation. By choosing the mean and the covariance functions of a Gaussian process wit…

Towards new cross-validation-based estimators for Gaussian process regression: efficient adjoint computation of gradients

Sébastien Petit, Julien Bect, Sébastien da Veiga +2

We consider the problem of estimating the parameters of the covariance function of a Gaussian process by cross-validation. We suggest using new cross-validation criteria derived fr…
