We study zeroth-order optimisation under context distributional uncertainty, a setting commonly tackled using Bayesian optimisation (BO). A prevailing strategy to make BO more robust to the complex and noisy nature of data is to employ an ensemble as the surrogate model, thereby …
arXiv:2605.05660v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-objective optimization (MOO) has received growing attention in applications that require learning under multiple criteria. However, the existing MOO formulations do not explicitly account for distributional shifts in the data.…

arXiv:2601.03166v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Choosing a suitable ML model is a complex task that can depend on several objectives, e.g., accuracy, fairness, or energy consumption. In practice, this requires trading off multiple, often competing, objectives through multi-ob…
arXiv:2605.13160v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern Bayesian optimization and adaptive sampling methods increasingly rely on nonlinear parametric models, yet theoretical guarantees for such models under adaptive data collection remain limited. Existing analyses largely focus o…

arXiv:2603.14094v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We address the brittleness of Bayesian experimental design under model misspecification by formulating the problem as a max--min game between the experimenter and an adversarial nature subject to information-theoretic constraint…
