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.
arXiv:2603. 07965v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bayesian optimization (BO) for high-dimensional constrained problems remains a significant challenge due to the curse of dimensionality.
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.
arXiv:2607. 23448v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Expensive constrained optimization problems in real-world industry design often involve constraint thresholds that are difficult to determine in advance.
arXiv:2603. 02970v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce LAGO, a LocAl-Global Optimization framework coupling Bayesian Optimization (BO) and gradient-based trust region local refinement through an adaptive competition mechanism for smooth expensive-to-evaluate objective functions with available gradients.
arXiv:2607. 00865v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian Optimisation (BO) under unknown constraints is particularly challenging when feasible regions are small.
arXiv:2606. 07841v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Black-box variational inference (BBVI) is a methodology for posterior approximation that relies on stochastic optimization.
arXiv:2607. 23480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Variational autoencoders (VAEs) transform high-dimensional, often noisy data into a compact latent representation, making downstream optimization more tractable.
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:2607. 18308v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Calibration of grey-box simulation models is a constrained optimization problem in which model evaluations are expensive, the parameter space can be high-dimensional, and the search must respect plausibility constraints.

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:2606. 19230v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents an extension to Pareto Front Guided Sampling (PFGS), a Human-in-the-Loop (HitL) Bayesian Optimization (BO) framework in which Gaussian process (GP) surrogate-derived quantities are reformulated as objectives of a multi-objective optimization problem, and the resulting Pareto front is exposed to a domain expert for interactive candidate selection rather than returning a single automated recommendation.
