Online Sharp-Calibrated Bayesian Optimization

Bayesian optimization (BO) is a widely used framework for optimizing expensive black-box functions, commonly based on Gaussian process (GP) surrogate models. Its effectiveness relies on uncertainty quantification that is both sharp (informative) and well-calibrated along the BO trajectory. In practice, GP kernel hyperparameters are unknown and are refit online from sequentially collected (non-i.i.d.) data, which can yield miscalibrated or overly conservative uncertainty and lies outside the fixed-kernel assumptions of standard BO regret theory. We propose Online Sharp-Calibrated Bayesian Optimization (OSCBO), a BO algorithm that adaptively balances GP sharpness and calibration by casting hyperparameter selection as a constrained online-learning problem. We also show that OSCBO preserves sublinear regret bounds by leveraging the theoretical guarantees of the underlying online learning algorithm. Empirically, OSCBO performs competitively across synthetic and real-world benchmarks, ranking among the strongest methods in final simple regret while maintaining robust cumulative-regret behavior.

Robust and Computation-Aware Gaussian Processes

Gaussian processes (GPs) are widely used for regression and optimization tasks such as Bayesian optimization (BO) due to their expressiveness and principled uncertainty estimates. However, in settings with large datasets corrupted by outliers, standard GPs and their sparse approximations struggle with computational tractability and robustness. We introduce Robust Computation-aware Gaussian Process (RCaGP), a novel GP model that jointly addresses these challenges by combining a principled treatment of approximation-induced uncertainty with robust generalized Bayesian updating. The key insight is that robustness and approximation-awareness are not orthogonal but intertwined: approximations can exacerbate the impact of outliers, and mitigating one without the other is insufficient. Unlike previous work that focuses narrowly on either robustness or approximation quality, RCaGP combines both in a principled and scalable framework, thus effectively managing both outliers and computational uncertainties introduced by approximations such as low-rank matrix multiplications. Our model ensures more conservative and reliable uncertainty estimates, a property we rigorously demonstrate. Additionally, we establish a robustness property and show that the mean function is key to preserving it, motivating a tailored model selection scheme for robust mean functions. Empirical results confirm that solving these challenges jointly leads to superior performance across both clean and outlier-contaminated settings, both on regression and high-throughput Bayesian optimization benchmarks.
