Learning to Warm-Start Bayesian Hyperparameter Optimization
Hyperparameter optimization undergoes extensive evaluations of validation errors in order to find the best configuration of hyperparameters. Bayesian optimization is now popular for hyperparameter optimization, since it reduces the number of validation error evaluations required. Suppose that we are given a collection of datasets on which hyperparameters are already tuned by either humans with ...
متن کاملAccurate Bayesian Data Classification without Hyperparameter Cross-validation
We extend the standard Bayesian multivariate Gaussian generative data classifier by considering a generalization of the conjugate, normal-Wishart prior distribution and by deriving the hyperparameters analytically via evidence maximization. The behaviour of the optimal hyperparameters is explored in the high-dimensional data regime. The classification accuracy of the resulting generalized model...
متن کاملHow to combine and not to combine physics and metaphysics
In this paper I will argue that if physics is to become a coherent metaphysics of nature it needs an “interpretation”. As I understand it, an interpretation of a physical theory amounts to offering (1) a precise formulation of its ontological claims and (2) a clear account of how such claims are related to the world of our experience. Notably, metaphysics enters importantly in both tasks: in (1...
متن کاملHow to combine independent data sets for the same quantity
Sometimes data sets used to determine the values of physical quantities are gathered from experiments or measurements performed at geographically different laboratories. This circumstance presents the problem of how to combine these data sets in the fairest manner for all concerned. Assuming that the different groups providing the data are essentially equally well trained and, therefore, essent...
متن کاملHow to combine independent data sets for the same quantity.
This paper describes a new mathematical method called conflation for consolidating data from independent experiments that measure the same physical quantity. Conflation is easy to calculate and visualize and minimizes the maximum loss in Shannon information in consolidating several independent distributions into a single distribution. A formal mathematical treatment of conflation has recently b...
