Black-box combinatorial optimization requires systematically identifying high-quality solutions under a limited evaluation budget, yet the unknown objective function provides little guidance for deciding where the search should explore next. We introduce SCOPE, a general framework for Synthetic Conditional Objectives for Policy Evolution in Black-Box Combinatorial Optimization.
arXiv:2607. 10669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian optimization is increasingly used to guide data-efficient experimentation in chemistry, materials science, and related laboratory settings, but its practical performance depends strongly on how well surrogate-model assumptions match the geometry and noise structure of the underlying objective.
