A new research paper identifies critical flaws in the standard multi-task Gaussian process method used for Bayesian optimization. The paper details how this common approach can misestimate cross-task correlations, even in simple scenarios, due to issues with per-task standardization and the marginal likelihood calculation. Researchers propose three remedies to address these pitfalls, aiming to improve the accuracy of transfer learning in optimization tasks. AI
