Efficient Global Optimization: kriging surrogates and expected improvement

Paper title Efficient Global Optimization of Expensive Black-Box Functions

Jones et al. (General Motors)

Paper doi.org⁠

Fits a kriging (Gaussian-process) response surface to a space-filling Latin hypercube design of about ten runs per variable, checks it by cross-validation, then picks each next run where the expected improvement over the best design so far is largest, found with a branch-and-bound search. Expected improvement weighs a low predicted value against a large predicted error, balancing exploitation of the surface with improving it where it is unsure; the search stops when expected improvement falls below 1% of the best value.
