HYPERPARAMETER OPTIMIZATION BASED ON APRIORI AND A POSTERIORI KNOWLEDGE ABOUT CLASSIFICATION PROBLEM

Annotation

Subject of Research.The paper deals with Bayesian method for hyperparameter optimization of algorithms, used in machine learning for classification problems. A comprehensive survey is carried out about using a priori and a posteriori knowledge in classification task for hyperparameter optimization quality improvement. Method. The existing Bayesian optimization algorithm for hyperparameter setting in classification problems was expanded. We proposed a target function modification calculated on the basis of hyperparameters optimized for the similar problems and a metric for determination of similarity classification problems based on generated meta-features. Main Results. Experiments carried out on the real-world datasets from OpenML database have confirmed that the proposed algorithm achieves usually significantly better performance results than the existing Bayesian optimization algorithm within a fixed time limit.Practical Relevance. The proposed algorithm can be used for hyperparameter optimization in any classification problem, for example, in medicine, image processing or chemistry.
