TunerBatch using Model Based Optimization

Source: R/TunerMbo.R
mlr_tuners_mbo.Rd

TunerMbo class that implements Model Based Optimization (MBO). This is a minimal interface internally passing on to OptimizerMbo. For additional information and documentation see OptimizerMbo.

Super classes

mlr3tuning::Tuner -> mlr3tuning::TunerBatch -> mlr3tuning::TunerBatchFromOptimizerBatch -> TunerMbo

Active bindings

loop_function

(loop_function | NULL)
Loop function determining the MBO flavor.

surrogate

(Surrogate | NULL)
The surrogate.

acq_function

(AcqFunction | NULL)
The acquisition function.

acq_optimizer

(AcqOptimizer | NULL)
The acquisition function optimizer.

args

(named list())
Further arguments passed to the loop_function. For example, random_interleave_iter.

result_assigner

(ResultAssigner | NULL)
The result assigner.

param_classes

(character())
Supported parameter classes that the optimizer can optimize. Determined based on the surrogate and the acq_optimizer. This corresponds to the values given by a paradox::ParamSet's $class field.

properties

(character())
Set of properties of the optimizer. Must be a subset of bbotk_reflections$optimizer_properties. MBO in principle is very flexible and by default we assume that the optimizer has all properties. When fully initialized, properties are determined based on the loop, e.g., the loop_function, and surrogate.

packages

(character())
Set of required packages. A warning is signaled prior to optimization if at least one of the packages is not installed, but loaded (not attached) later on-demand via requireNamespace(). Required packages are determined based on the acq_function, surrogate and the acq_optimizer.

Methods

Public methods

Inherited methods

Method new()

Creates a new instance of this R6 class. For more information on default values for loop_function, surrogate, acq_function, acq_optimizer, and result_assigner, see ?mbo_defaults.

Note that all the parameters below are simply passed to the OptimizerMbo and the respective fields are simply (settable) active bindings to the fields of the OptimizerMbo.

Usage

TunerMbo$new(
  loop_function = NULL,
  surrogate = NULL,
  acq_function = NULL,
  acq_optimizer = NULL,
  args = NULL,
  result_assigner = NULL
)

Arguments

loop_function

(loop_function | NULL)
Loop function determining the MBO flavor.

surrogate

(Surrogate | NULL)
The surrogate.

acq_function

(AcqFunction | NULL)
The acquisition function.

acq_optimizer

(AcqOptimizer | NULL)
The acquisition function optimizer.

args

(named list())
Further arguments passed to the loop_function. For example, random_interleave_iter.

result_assigner

(ResultAssigner | NULL)
The result assigner.

Method print()

Print method.

Usage

TunerMbo$print()

Returns

(character()).

Method reset()

Reset the tuner. Sets the following fields to NULL: loop_function, surrogate, acq_function, acq_optimizer, args, result_assigner

Usage

TunerMbo$reset()

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

TunerMbo$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
