• Abstract: We introduce an open source python framework named PHS - Parallel Hyperparameter Search to enable hyperparameter optimization on numerous compute instances of any arbitrary python function. This is achieved with minimal modifications inside the target function. Possible applications appear in expensive to evaluate numerical computations which strongly depend on hyperparameters such as machine learning. Bayesian optimization is chosen as a sample efficient method to propose the next query set of parameters.

  We propose a novel Bayesian surrogate model to balance exploration with exploitation of the search space. To endow function sampling with scalability, random feature-based kernel approximation is leveraged per GP model. To further establish convergence of the proposed EGP-TS to the global optimum, analysis is conducted based on the notion of Bayesian regret.
