Structured search spaces with other solvers #89

Open RobertArbon opened 7 years ago

RobertArbon commented 7 years ago

Hi,

it looks like particle swarm is the only method that can be used in the structured search spaces. Is this correct?

If it is, do you have any plans to extend TPE and BayesOpt to allow for the structured search spaces?

Thanks,

Rob

@RobertArbon do you got any answer so far?

RobertArbon commented 5 years ago

No yet but I did move on so it became less relevant for me.

As you mentioned, PSO is currently the only solver supporting structured search spaces. It should be fairly straightforward to extend both TPE and BayesOpt to do so as well, since the original implementations of those solvers support it natively.

Unfortunately, the development of Optunity has stagnated since I moved positions and am no longer able to put significant time in maintaining and updating the package. As such, if Optunity lacks features you require I suggest to peruse other hyperparameter optimization packages, many of which have arisen since Optunity's original inception.

Of course, PRs with new features are most welcome :-)
