商品描述

The book provides a comprehensive review of multiple information sources and multi-fidelity Bayesian optimization, specifically focusing on the novel "Augmented Gaussian Process" methodology. The book is important to clarify the relations and the important differences in using multi-fidelity or multiple information source approaches for solving real-world problems. Choosing the most appropriate strategy, depending on the specific problem features, ensures the success of the final solution. The book also offers an overview of available software tools: in particular it presents two implementations of the Augmented Gaussian Process-based Multiple Information Source Bayesian Optimization, one in Python -- and available as a development branch in BoTorch -- and finally, a comparative analysis against other available multi-fidelity and multiple information sources optimization tools is presented, considering both test problems and real-world applications.

The book will be useful to two main audiences:

1. PhD candidates in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Optimization

2. Researchers from academia and industry who want to implement effective and efficient procedures for designing experiments and optimizing computationally expensive experiments in domains like engineering design, material science, and biotechnology.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供了多個資訊來源和多忠實度貝葉斯優化的全面回顧,特別專注於新穎的「增強高斯過程」(Augmented Gaussian Process)方法論。本書的重要性在於澄清使用多忠實度或多個資訊來源方法解決現實世界問題之間的關係和重要差異。根據特定問題的特徵選擇最合適的策略,確保最終解決方案的成功。本書還提供了可用軟體工具的概述:特別介紹了基於增強高斯過程的多資訊來源貝葉斯優化的兩個實作,其中一個是用 Python 實現的,並作為 BoTorch 的開發分支可用,最後還對其他可用的多忠實度和多資訊來源優化工具進行了比較分析,考慮了測試問題和現實世界應用。

本書將對兩個主要讀者群體有用:

1. 計算機科學、人工智慧、機器學習和優化的博士候選人
2. 希望在工程設計、材料科學和生物技術等領域實施有效且高效的實驗設計和優化計算成本高的實驗程序的學術界和業界研究人員。
