arXiv:2606. 00009v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian Optimization (BO) is widely and successfully adopted for solving optimization problems having an expensive-to-evaluate, black-box, and non-convex objective function.
arXiv:2606. 02179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Surrogate models for topology optimization (TO) exhibit highly variable out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization under distribution shifts such as changing loads or boundary conditions, yet the source of this variability remains unclear.
arXiv:2507. 13263v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bayesian Optimization (BO) is a powerful tool for black-box optimization, but its application to high-dimensional permutation spaces is severely limited by the challenge of defining scalable representations.
arXiv:2608. 03045v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider grey-box optimization problems where the decision variables naturally partition into black-box variables (as arguments to an expensive black-box function) and white-box variables, governed by a set of explicit, closed-form equations that also depend on the output of the black-box function.
arXiv:2509. 21725v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A bilevel optimization problem consists of two optimization problems nested as an upper- and a lower-level problem, in which the optimality of the lower-level problem defines a constraint for the upper-level problem.
arXiv:2606. 02351v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian optimization (BO) is a popular and effective approach for tuning expensive, noisy experiments, but requires the formulation of an explicit objective function.
arXiv:2606. 07403v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benders decomposition is a fundamental framework for solving large-scale mixed-integer optimization problems with complicating variables that, when fixed, yield significantly easier subproblems.
arXiv:2607. 12241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine-learned surrogates for the AC power flow (ACPF) problem amortize the cost of repeated solves on a fixed network, but lose one to two orders of magnitude of accuracy when a line outage changes the topology.
arXiv:2603. 29730v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present mlr3mbo, a modular toolbox for Bayesian optimization in R.
arXiv:2411. 16206v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Extending Bayesian optimization to batch evaluation can enable the designer to make the most use of parallel computing technology.
arXiv:2606. 12667v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rapidly expanding low Earth orbit satellite constellations are placing increasing demands on terrestrial ground networks, motivating the development of more efficient ground station network designs.
arXiv:2607. 13652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many design tasks can be cast as black-box function optimization, enabling use of Bayesian optimization to find an ideal design with minimal number of trials.
arXiv:2603. 24567v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Constrained optimization in high-dimensional black-box settings is difficult due to expensive evaluations, the lack of gradient information, and complex feasibility regions.
