Bayesian Optimization for a Better Dessert
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a case study on applying Bayesian Optimization to a complex real-world system; our challenge was to optimize chocolate chip cookies. The process was a mixed-initiative system where both human chefs, human raters, and a machine optimizer participated in 144 experiments. This process resulted in highly rated cookies that deviated from expectations in some surprising ways – much less sugar in California, and cayenne in Pittsburgh. Our experience highlights the importance of incorporating domain expertise and the value of transfer learning approaches.

Structure Learning in Bayesian Networks Using Asexual Reproduction Optimization
A new structure learning approach for Bayesian networks (BNs) based on asexual reproduction optimization (ARO) is proposed in this letter. ARO can be essentially considered as an evolutionary based algorithm that mathematically models the budding mechanism of asexual reproduction. In ARO, a parent produces a bud through a reproduction operator; thereafter the parent and its bud compete to survi...
متن کاملImproved Bayesian Training for Context-Dependent Modeling in Continuous Persian Speech Recognition
Context-dependent modeling is a widely used technique for better phone modeling in continuous speech recognition. While different types of context-dependent models have been used, triphones have been known as the most effective ones. In this paper, a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) estimation approach has been used to estimate the parameters of the untied triphone model set used in data-driven clust...
متن کاملComparative Analysis of Machine Learning Algorithms with Optimization Purposes
The field of optimization and machine learning are increasingly interplayed and optimization in different problems leads to the use of machine learning approaches. Machine learning algorithms work in reasonable computational time for specific classes of problems and have important role in extracting knowledge from large amount of data. In this paper, a methodology has been employed to opt...
متن کاملUrban Consumer Willingness to Pay for Introduced Dessert Bananas in Uganda
Dessert bananas (Musa spp.) form one of the world’s most important fruits, yet one of the least traded commodities in Uganda. A range of exotic and hybrid dessert bananas that included KABANA 3H and KABANA 4H were introduced in Uganda in response to Fusarium wilt disease that was wiping away Gros Michel. However, the effect of dessert attributes and consumer characteristics on consumers’ willin...
متن کاملMultiple utility constrained multi-objective programs using Bayesian theory
A utility function is an important tool for representing a DM’s preference. We adjoin utility functions to multi-objective optimization problems. In current studies, usually one utility function is used for each objective function. Situations may arise for a goal to have multiple utility functions. Here, we consider a constrained multi-objective problem with each objective having multiple utili...
