A Bayesian Approach for Prioritising Driving Behaviour Investigations in Telematic Auto Insurance Policies

no code implementations22 Apr 2024 Mark McLeod, Bernardo Perez-Orozco, Nika Lee, Davide Zilli

An appropriately formed priority score, generated by automated analysis of GPS data, allows underwriters to make more efficient use of their time, improving detection of the behaviour under investigation.

Optimization, fast and slow: optimally switching between local and Bayesian optimization

1 code implementation ICML 2018 Mark McLeod, Michael A. Osborne, Stephen J. Roberts

We develop the first Bayesian Optimization algorithm, BLOSSOM, which selects between multiple alternative acquisition functions and traditional local optimization at each step.

Fast Information-theoretic Bayesian Optimisation

1 code implementation ICML 2018 Binxin Ru, Mark McLeod, Diego Granziol, Michael A. Osborne

Information-theoretic Bayesian optimisation techniques have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in tackling important global optimisation problems.

Practical Bayesian Optimization for Variable Cost Objectives

1 code implementation13 Mar 2017 Mark McLeod, Michael A. Osborne, Stephen J. Roberts

We propose a novel Bayesian Optimization approach for black-box functions with an environmental variable whose value determines the tradeoff between evaluation cost and the fidelity of the evaluations.
