| Pseudocode | Yes | Algorithm 1 shows the procedure of MF-MES for sequential querying. |
| Open Source Code | No | The paper does not provide concrete access to source code for the methodology described. |
| Open Datasets | Yes | We used a synthetic function generated by MF-GPR, two benchmark functions, and a real-world dataset from materials science. The details of functions are described as follows. (...) Benchmark Functions: We used two benchmark functions called Styblinski-Tang (d = 2, M = 2), and Hart Mann6 (d = 6, M = 3). (...) Material Data: As an example of practical applications, we applied our method to the parameter optimization of a simulation model in materials science. The task is to optimize d = 2 material parameters in the simulation model (Tsukada et al., 2014). |
| Dataset Splits | No | The paper defines metrics like Simple Regret and Inference Regret but does not specify dataset splits (e.g., percentages or counts) for training, validation, and testing as commonly done in supervised learning. |
| Hardware Specification | No | The paper does not provide specific hardware details (e.g., exact GPU/CPU models, processor types, or memory amounts) used for running its experiments. |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper mentions 'GPytorch library' and 'Adam optimizer' but does not specify their version numbers, which is required for reproducible software dependencies. |
| Experiment Setup | Yes | For each evaluation, we fit the hyperparameters of the kernel and the noise parameter by maximizing the marginal likelihood with 1000 iterations of Adam optimizer (Kingma & Ba, 2014). For optimization of the highest fidelity f and x , we ran L-BFGS-B 10 times with random initialization from the observed data for 200 iterations each time. (...) For the sampling of f in MES and MF-MES, we employed the RFM-based approach described in Section 4, and sampled 10 f s at every iteration. |
