mlr_acqfunctions_aei: Acquisition Function Augmented Expected Improvement

In mlr3mbo: Flexible Bayesian Optimization

Acquisition Function Augmented Expected Improvement

Description

Augmented Expected Improvement. Useful when working with noisy objectives. Currently only works correctly with "regr.km" as surrogate model and nugget.estim = TRUE or given.

Dictionary

This AcqFunction can be instantiated via the dictionary mlr_acqfunctions or with the associated sugar function acqf():

mlr_acqfunctions$get("aei")
acqf("aei")

Parameters

• "c" (numeric(1))
  Constant c as used in Formula (14) of Huang (2012) to reflect the degree of risk aversion. Defaults to 1.

Super classes

bbotk::Objective -> mlr3mbo::AcqFunction -> AcqFunctionAEI

Public fields

y_effective_best

(numeric(1))
Best effective objective value observed so far. In the case of maximization, this already includes the necessary change of sign.

noise_var

(numeric(1))
Estimate of the variance of the noise. This corresponds to the nugget estimate when using a mlr3learners as surrogate model.

Methods

Method new()

Creates a new instance of this R6 class.

Usage

AcqFunctionAEI$new(surrogate = NULL, c = 1)

Arguments

surrogate

(NULL | SurrogateLearner).

c

(numeric(1)).

---

Method update()

Update the acquisition function and set y_effective_best and noise_var.

Usage

AcqFunctionAEI$update()

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

AcqFunctionAEI$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
