Came across this paper bringing together two of my passions: The ocean and sample-efficient optimization (the paper uses BoTorch for multi-objective optimization of a catamaran hull design via CFD simulations): sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

On this darkest day of the year, allow me to share a bit of light in the form of a fantastic tutorial on adaptive experimentation put together by my student Sterling G. Baird. Here is the first video in the series: youtu.be/Evua529dAgc new posts through Christmas ;)

Are you attending #SIAMCSE23 and want to learn about how Bayesian optimization can be used for problems such as peptide design, molecular design, and optimizing stellarator coils? Join Max Balandat and I tomorrow in our minisymposium on Bayesian optimization in the real-world.

Compute is increasing much faster than data. How can we improve classical supervised learning long term (the underlying tech of most of GenAI)? Our ICML position paper's answer: simply train on a bunch of artificial data (noise) and only do inference on real-world data! 1/n

Excited to share our ICML 2025 paper: "Scalable Gaussian Processes with Latent Kronecker Structure" We unlock efficient linear algebra for your kernel matrix which *almost* has Kronecker product structure. Check out our paper here: arxiv.org/abs/2506.06895
