The eight-dimensional optimization of the simulated TES beamline, where the degrees of freedom comprise the toroidal and Kirkpatrick–Baez mirrors. The colors show different varieties of Bayesian optimization algorithms both with and without latent inputs and composite outputs, with both the cumulative maximum of all individual runs (thin lines) and the median cumulative maximum (thick line). Each variety starts out with a quasi-random sampling of 32 points (shaded light blue) and then performs a Bayesian optimization loop with the expected improvement acquisition function. The benefit of using both latent inputs and composite outputs is shown, as we can achieve a better optimum more robustly and more quickly. |
