A fully Bayesian implementation of sequential model-based optimization

• Free software: Apache Software License 2.0
• Documentation: https://bayes-skopt.readthedocs.io.
• Built on top of the excellent Scikit-Optimize (skopt) <https://github.com/scikit-optimize/scikit-optimize>__.

Features

• A fully Bayesian variant of the GaussianProcessRegressor.
• State of the art information-theoretic acquisition functions, such as the Max-value entropy search <https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.01968>__ or Predictive variance reduction search <https://bayesopt.github.io/papers/2017/13.pdf>__, for even faster convergence in simple regret.
• Familiar Optimizer interface known from Scikit-Optimize.
