Search Results for "bayesian python"

BayesianOptimization is a Python library that helps find the maximum (or minimum) of expensive or unknown objective functions using Bayesian optimization. This technique is especially useful for hyperparameter tuning in machine learning, where evaluating the objective function is costly. The library provides an easy-to-use API for defining bounds and optimizing over parameter spaces using probabilistic models like Gaussian Processes.

Nevergrad is a Python library for derivative-free optimization, offering robust implementations of many algorithms suited for black-box functions (i.e. functions where gradients are unavailable or unreliable). It targets hyperparameter search, architecture search, control problems, and experimental tuning—domains in which gradient-based methods may fail or be inapplicable.

Pyro is a flexible, universal probabilistic programming language (PPL) built on PyTorch. It allows for expressive deep probabilistic modeling, combining the best of modern deep learning and Bayesian modeling. Pyro is centered on four main principles: Universal, Scalable, Minimal and Flexible. Pyro is universal in that it can represent any computable probability distribution. It scales easily to large datasets with minimal overhead, and has a small yet powerful core of composable...

Neural Tangents is a high-level neural network API for specifying complex, hierarchical models at both finite and infinite width, built in Python on top of JAX and XLA. It lets researchers define architectures from familiar building blocks—convolutions, pooling, residual connections, and nonlinearities—and obtain not only the finite network but also the corresponding Gaussian Process (GP) kernel of its infinite-width limit. With a single specification, you can compute NNGP and NTK kernels,...
