Acquisition Function SMS-EGO

S-Metric Selection Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization Algorithm Acquisition Function.

Parameters

• "lambda" (numeric(1))
  \(\lambda\) value used for the confidence bound. Defaults to 1. Based on confidence = (1 - 2 * dnorm(lambda)) ^ m you can calculate a lambda for a given confidence level, see Ponweiser et al. (2008).

• "epsilon" (numeric(1))
  \(\epsilon\) used for the additive epsilon dominance. Can either be a single numeric value > 0 or NULL (default). In the case of being NULL, an epsilon vector is maintained dynamically as described in Horn et al. (2015).

Super classes

bbotk::Objective -> mlr3mbo::AcqFunction -> AcqFunctionSmsEgo

Public fields

ys_front

(matrix())
Approximated Pareto front. Signs are corrected with respect to assuming minimization of objectives.

ref_point

(numeric())
Reference point. Signs are corrected with respect to assuming minimization of objectives.

epsilon

(numeric())
Epsilon used for the additive epsilon dominance.

progress

(numeric(1))
Optimization progress (typically, the number of function evaluations left). Note that this requires the bbotk::OptimInstance to be terminated via a bbotk::TerminatorEvals.
