Hi Chaz,

Thanks,  for handling continuous parameters
the approach we have in mind is to sample continuous values
but then do some adaptive binning to reason about specific
combinations of them – there are some details to be worked
out though.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for sharing. In my opinion, apart from discretizing the search space, 
the N-Tuple system takes a very intuitive approach to hyper-parameter 
optimization. The github repo readme notes you're working on an extended 
version to handle continuous parameters, what's your general approach to that 
issue?

Thanks,
-Chaz

Hi all,

The N-Tuple Bandit Evolutionary Algorithm aims
to provide sample-efficient optimisation, especially
for noisy problems.

Software available in Java and Python:

https://github.com/SimonLucas/ntbea

It also provides stats on the value of each parameter setting
and combinations of settings.

Best wishes,

Simon
