This paper proposes a novel approach to enhance multi-objective hyperparameter optimization in machine learning. The authors recognize that traditional optimization methods ignore valuable insights gained from monitoring model performance across multiple epochs, which creates a trajectory in the objective space. By incorporating this trajectory information as an additional decision variable, the proposed algorithm, dubbed Trajectory-based Multi-Objective Bayesian Optimization (TMOBO), aims to optimize hyperparameters more efficiently. TMOBO features an acquisition function that captures the improvement made by predictive trajectories and a multi-objective early stopping mechanism to terminate the trajectory when epoch efficiency is maximized. Numerical experiments on synthetic simulations and benchmarks show that TMOBO outperforms state-of-the-art methods in locating better trade-offs and tuning efficiency.

This paper helps machine learning models learn faster and better. Currently, we can only see how well a model performs at each step of the learning process. But what if we could use this information to make even better decisions? The researchers propose an innovative approach that takes into account the path the model follows during its training. This allows for more efficient and effective optimization of the model’s performance. Experiments show that this new method is more powerful than existing methods in finding the best balance between different goals and optimizing the learning process.
