• Abstract: Many approaches for optimizing decision making models rely on gradient based methods requiring informative feedback from the environment. However, in the case where such feedback is sparse or uninformative, such approaches may result in poor performance. Derivative-free approaches such as Bayesian Optimization mitigate the dependency on the quality of gradient feedback, but are known to scale poorly in the high-dimension setting of complex decision making models. This problem is exacerbated if the model requires interactions between several agents cooperating to accomplish a shared goal. To address the dimensionality challenge, we propose a compact multi-layered architecture modeling the dynamics of agent interactions through the concept of role. We introduce Dependency Structure Search Bayesian Optimization to efficiently optimize the multi-layered architecture parameterized by a large number of parameters, and show an improved regret bound. Our approach shows strong empirical results under malformed or sparse reward.

We study two practical types of labels: 1) noisy measurements of a real-valued reward function and 2) human preference based on pairwise comparisons. Our proposed method reformulates the design optimization problem into a conditional sampling problem, which allows us to leverage the power of diffusion models.

We show that our method maintains a mere 20% of domain-specific parameters and yet delivers a performance comparable to other methodologies. Our method displays outstanding performance post-pruning, leading to a significant improvement of nearly 20% performance in model merging.

• Automatically Learning Compact Quality-aware Surrogates for Optimization Problems [55.94450542785096]
  Solving optimization problems with unknown parameters requires learning a predictive model to predict the values of the unknown parameters and then solving the problem using these values. Recent work has shown that including the optimization problem as a layer in a complex training model pipeline results in predictions of iteration of unobserved decision making. We show that we can improve solution quality by learning a low-dimensional surrogate model of a large optimization problem.
