This document discusses methods for automated machine learning (AutoML) and optimization of hyperparameters. It focuses on accelerating the Nelder-Mead method for hyperparameter optimization using predictive parallel evaluation. Specifically, it proposes using a Gaussian process to model the objective function and perform predictive evaluations in parallel to reduce the number of actual function evaluations needed by the Nelder-Mead method. The results show this approach reduces evaluations by 49-63% compared to baseline methods.
