Correlated Product of Experts for Sparse Gaussian Process Regression

Manuel Schürch, Dario Azzimonti, Alessio Benavoli +1

Gaussian processes (GPs) are an important tool in machine learning and statistics with applications ranging from social and natural science through engineering. They constitute a p…

Choice functions based multi-objective Bayesian optimisation

Alessio Benavoli, Dario Azzimonti, Dario Piga

In this work we introduce a new framework for multi-objective Bayesian optimisation where the multi-objective functions can only be accessed via choice judgements, such as ``I pick…

Gaussian Processes to speed up MCMC with automatic exploratory-exploitation effect

Alessio Benavoli, Jason Wyse, Arthur White

We present a two-stage Metropolis-Hastings algorithm for sampling probabilistic models, whose log-likelihood is computationally expensive to evaluate, by using a surrogate Gaussian…

Bayesian Optimisation for Sequential Experimental Design with Applications in Additive Manufacturing

Mimi Zhang, Andrew Parnell, Dermot Brabazon +1

Bayesian optimization (BO) is an approach to globally optimizing black-box objective functions that are expensive to evaluate. BO-powered experimental design has found wide applica…

Quantum indistinguishability through exchangeable desirable gambles

Alessio Benavoli, Alessandro Facchini, Marco Zaffalon

Two particles are identical if all their intrinsic properties, such as spin and charge, are the same, meaning that no quantum experiment can distinguish them. In addition to the we…

Bayesian Kernelised Test of (In)dependence with Mixed-type Variables

Alessio Benavoli, Cassio de Campos

A fundamental task in AI is to assess (in)dependence between mixed-type variables (text, image, sound). We propose a Bayesian kernelised correlation test of (in)dependence using a…
