Bayesian Optimization

A simple implementation code of Bayesian Optimization (BayesOpt) on NumPy and SciPy with Gaussian Process as the surrogate model and Expected Improvement as acquisition function for black-box optimization.

The main idea of the algorithm is to build a statistical surrogate model (distribution over function) and sample more data via a cheap-optimized acquisition function to update itself via Bayesian theorem, thus locating the global optimum of the black-box function.
