Bayesian optimization
Suppose we want to optimize a function such as validation error (which is a
function of hyperparameters) but it’s really complicated. We can approximate
it with a simple function, called the surrogate function. After we have queried a certain number of points, we can condition on
these point to infer the posterior over the surrogate function using Bayesian
linear regression.
Bayesian Optimization iteratively uses a probabilistic surrogate model and an acquisition function to determine next point of evaluation in a search space. At each iteration step, the surrogate model is fit to all observations of the target function. The acquisition function determines the utility of the different candidate points using the predictive distribution of the probabilistic model. Bayesian optimization has the advantage of been derivative-free optimizer which means in situations where the function to be optimized has a derivative that is intractable or is not continuous, it can still be optimized by this method. It is also high performing,in fact experiments published in this paper here by Turner et al. shows that several implementations of Bayesian Optimization for the purpose of hyperparameter tuning outperforms the random search and grid search methods.
Bayesian hyperparameter optimization is a trade off between exploration (hyperparameters for which the outcome is most uncertain) and exploitation (hyperparameters expected close to the optimum). Some AutoML algorithms employ bayesian optimization for automatic hyperparameter tuning.
In Bayesian optimization, the surrogate function that quantifies the uncertainty in the objective function is optimized in place of the actual objective function. This is done when the objective function is costly to optimize. Bayesian optimization allows for global minimization of black-box functions without evaluating the derivative of the function. The bayesian approach treats the objective function as a random function and places a prior distribution on it based on our knowledge of the function. An acquisition function defined from this surrogate is used to decide where to sample.
There are several packages for bayesian optimization in both Python and R. In this work we will implement several of such libraries applied to the the problem of hyperparameter tuning of machine learning models. Two models the XGBoost and Lightgbm algorithms will be considered. These two are among the best performing and most popular Tree-based gradient boosting ensemble models around.
Common Libraries for Bayesian Hyperparameter Tuning.
There are many frameworks you can use to bayesian optimization in Python for bayesian-optimization, these include bayesian-optimization, Hyperopt, Scikit-Optimize, Optuna etc. The focus of this work will be to show how you can perform bayesian optimization in applied in the context of hyperparameter tuningn of XGBoost and LightGBM using the frameworks listed below. The idea is to model the hyperparameter search process probabilistically. An evaluation metric AUC or F1 value is used select the next combination of hyper-parameters, such that the improvement in the metric is maximum. We would illustrate how to perform bayesian optimization applied in the context hyperparameter tuning using the following libraries. The libraries below are the most common and easy to implement bayesian optimizers. The goal is to have a comprehensive resources that can get one started quickly on tuning hyperparameters using bayesian optimization.

- Hyperopt

Formulate the machine learning hyperparameter tunining as an optimization problem with an objective function evaluate. Here the parameters to be tuned are max_depth, gamma and colsample_bytree. A three fold cross validation is used used in the hyperparameter tuning process. The return value of this function is the mean of the cross-validation auc.
For regression problems, return of this function is the mean squared error. It is multiplied by negative one because the optimization process will by default be a maximization process but we need the minimum mean squared error as the best model or in other words the multiplication by -1 converts the optimization maximization problem to minimization problem

Bayesian Hyperparameter Tuning of Lightgbm Model

### 2. Using the scikit-optimize Library Here we would perform the above hyperparameter tuning with the bayes-optimize package. The bayes optimize package integrates very nicely with the scikit-learn package. This makes hyperparameter tuning of scikit-learn models a breeze. You would only need to replace GridSearchCV or RandomizedSearchCV used in scikit-learn hyperparameter tuning with BayesSearchCV class from the scikit-optimize library.

3. Using the Optuna library
Optuna uses a technique called Tree-Parzen estimator to select the set of hyper-parameters to be considered in the next iteration of the search, based on the history of experiments. It also has functionality for logging and visualizations of experiments and hyperparameters More details of this framework is available on the adevelopers page here.
To use optuna with neptune.ai which give you access to more resources to visualize the tuning process etc., you will need to first create an account at neptune. This would allow you create a project,get an API token and allow you to create an experiment on neptune in your notebook. The name of my project is bayeshyper and my experiment is bayes hpo. Our goal is to maximize auc which is the value of the objective function. The steps to tuning parameters with optuna in conjunction with neptune.ai are create an obective function which returns the value of the evaluation metric in this case AUC.Next create a named experiment, create a study with a study name. We want the experiment to sored in an sql-lite database so we specify the location as ‘sqlite:///bayeshpo.db’ whereas the study anme is “bayeshpo-experiment”. The NeptuneMonitor class from neptune.ai creates a callback that automatically logs all the useful information from the tuning process which can later be used in creating visualizations. study.optimize begins the optimization, the number of steps here N_TRIALS is set to 100 trials. It must be noted that Optuna can be used without neptune.ai. We show how to use Optuna with neptune.ai and by itself.

The highest AUC which is 0.93 together with the optimal values of the hyperparameters is shown above.There are options for different visualizations of the optimization process available in optuna. The one important for hyperparameter tuning are history plot, slice plot, contour plot, and parallel coordinate plot.

4. Hyperopt
Hyperopt is an open source hyperparameter optimization library that implements bayesian optimization for hyperparameter tuning as well as other algorithms. Hyperopt implements three algorithms Random Search, Random Search, Tree of Parzen Estimators (TPE) and Adaptive TPE. The bayesian optimizer is implemented as TPE. More information on how to get started with this library is found here. There is also the Hyperopt-sklearn which is Hyperopt-based model selection among machine learning algorithms wrapper for scikit-learn.
# Run an XGBoost model with hyperparmaters that are optimized using hyperopt
