When a low-dimensional linear embedding structure can be assumed, existing Bayesian optimization (BO) methods often transform the original problem into optimization in a low-dimensional space. They exploit the low-dimensional structure and reduce the computational burden. However, we reveal that this approach could be limited or inefficient in exploring the high-dimensional space mainly due to the biased reconstruction of the high-dimensional queries from the low-dimensional queries. In this paper, we investigate a simple alternative approach: tackling the problem in the original high-dimensional space using the information from the learned low-dimensional structure. We provide a theoretical analysis of the exploration ability. Furthermore, we show that our method is applicable to batch optimization problems with thousands of dimensions without any computational difficulty. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method on high-dimensional benchmarks and a real-world function.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.00947v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.00947v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"linear-embedding-based-high-dimensional-batch","repo_url":"https://github.com/s-horiguchi/mahalanobisbatchbo","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"bayesian-optimization","task_name":"Bayesian Optimization"},{"task_slug":"high","task_name":"Vocal Bursts Intensity Prediction"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
