The paper introduces Gradient-based Sample Selection Bayesian Optimization (GSSBO), a method that builds the Gaussian process surrogate on a strategically chosen subset of samples rather than the full dataset. By using gradient information to eliminate redundant points while keeping diversity and representativeness, GSSBO achieves sublinear regret bounds and reduces the cubic computational cost of standard BO. Experiments on synthetic and real-world tasks show that this approach maintains comparable optimization performance while significantly cutting GP fitting time and resource usage.

MF-SCBO is a new multi‑fidelity extension of Scalable Constrained Bayesian Optimization designed for high‑dimensional black‑box functions with black‑box constraints. It handles an arbitrary number of fidelity levels and non‑nested sampling, addressing gaps in existing methods. Experiments on standard benchmarks and challenging problems show that MF‑SCBO generally converges faster than both single‑fidelity SCBO and other multi‑fidelity approaches in high‑dimensional constrained settings.

The paper introduces Bayesian Optimization (BO) techniques that incorporate rich auxiliary information—such as training curves, expert notes, images, and prior knowledge—using large language models (LLMs). Three new methods are proposed to integrate this auxiliary data into BO, and they are evaluated on hyperparameter optimization benchmarks and a real-world nuclear fusion task. The results show that these LLM-enhanced BO methods consistently outperform standard BO and existing LLM-based optimization approaches.
