Integrating Resource Planning with Bayesian Optimization

Creator:

Dolatnia, Nima

Abstract:

Bayesian optimization (BO) aims to optimize costly-to-evaluate functions by running a limited number of experiments that each evaluates the function at a selected input. Typical BO formulations assume that experiments are selected sequentially, or in fixed batches. Moreover, these experiments can be executed immediately upon request and have the same...

Wasserstein β-Diversity Metrics over Graphs: Derivation, Efficient Computation and Applications

Creator:

McClelland, Jason

Abstract:

Microbial ecology has been transformed by metagenomics, the study of the genetic in-formation in entire communities of organisms. In the following we develop metagenomic tools arising from the classic Wasserstein metric as applied to questions regarding the diversity between microbial communities. We provide a novel proof of the characteriza-tion of...
