PALM-Mean combines sign-aware piecewise-linear relaxations of locally important kernel terms with closed-form analytic bounds on the rest inside a reduced-space branch-and-bound framework, yielding valid lower bounds and ε-global convergence for GP posterior mean optimization.
KDE-AIS trains a Gaussian process and kernel density surrogate from shared evaluations to build an adaptive importance sampling proposal that converges to the zero-variance optimum for efficient failure probability estimation.
Assembly-like FEM updating performs ~95% of solves on subassemblies for 28% lower workload proxy effort with fidelity within 1% of global updating on experimental flexible wing data.
BACO replaces direct black-box calls in collaborative optimization with Gaussian process surrogates at both subsystem and system levels, achieving lower objectives and near-zero constraint violations on MDO benchmarks and a CRM wing problem within limited evaluations.
Two frameworks for nonlinear equality constraints in gradient-enhanced local Bayesian optimization achieve deeper convergence with fewer function evaluations than previous constrained BO methods and SciPy/MATLAB quasi-Newton optimizers on unimodal problems with 2-30 variables.
A gradient-enhanced local Bayesian optimization framework that converges optimality as deeply as standard optimizers but with significantly fewer function evaluations on 2-40 dimensional unimodal problems, outperforming them under noisy gradients.
Reinforcement learning selects hyperparameters sequentially by learning from actual future validation loss reductions and outperforms SMBO methods on 50 datasets.
An adaptive target-variance scheme for Monte Carlo integration inside sEGO improves performance over fixed-variance and multi-start baselines on stochastic benchmarks and a tuned-mass-damper problem while enabling high stochastic dimension counts.
Systematic benchmarks on NACA0012, RAE2822, and ONERA M6 cases show derivative-free optimizers competitive with adjoint-based methods and stronger in higher dimensions.
spotoptim is an open-source Python package that implements a Kriging-based optimization loop with Expected Improvement, mixed-variable support, noise handling via OCBA, parallelization, and restart mechanisms for black-box optimization.
Bayesian optimization with Gaussian processes unifies minimization, single-point saddle searches, and double-ended path searches on potential energy surfaces through a shared six-step surrogate loop using derivative observations and inverse-distance kernels.
Bayesian optimization automates the scientific discovery cycle by modeling observations with surrogate models and using acquisition functions to select experiments that balance known information with new exploration.
