For machine learning practitioners confident in maths and statistics.
Bayesian Optimization in Action shows you how to optimise hyperparameter tuning, A/B testing, and other aspects of the machine learning process, by applying cutting-edge Bayesian techniques. Using clear language, Bayesian Optimization helps pinpoint the best configuration for your machine-learning models with speed and accuracy. With a range of illustrations, and concrete examples, this book proves that Bayesian Optimisation doesn't have to be difficult!
Key features include:
You will get in-depth insights into how Bayesian optimisation works and learn how to implement it with cutting-edge Python libraries. The book's easy-to-reuse code samples will let you hit the ground running by plugging them straight into your own projects!
About the technology
Experimenting in science and engineering can be costly and time-consuming, especially without a reliable way to narrow down your choices. Bayesian Optimisation helps you identify optimal configurations to pursue in a search space. It uses a Gaussian process and machine learning techniques to model an objective function and quantify the uncertainty of predictions. Whether you're tuning machine learning models, recommending products to customers, or engaging in research, Bayesian Optimisation can help you make better decisions faster.

Quan Nguyen is a Python programmer and machine learning enthusiast. He is interested in solving decision-making problems that involve uncertainty. Quan has authored several books on Python programming and scientific computing. He is currently pursuing a PhD degree in Computer Science at Washington University in St. Louis, where he conducts research on Bayesian methods in machine learning.
Bayesian Optimization in Action teaches you how to build Bayesian Optimisation systems from the ground up. This book transforms state-of-the-art research into usable techniques that you can easily put into practice ― all fully illustrated with useful code samples.
You will hone your understanding of Bayesian Optimisation through engaging examples ― from forecasting the weather to finding the optimal amount of sugar for coffee and even deciding if someone is psychic! Along the way, you will explore scenarios with multiple objectives, when each decision has its own cost, and when feedback is in the form of pairwise comparisons. With this collection of techniques, you will be ready to find the optimal solution for everything ― from transport and logistics to cancer treatments.
For machine learning practitioners who are confident in math and statistics.
