Black box optimization for automatic speech recognition [PDF]

open access: yes2014 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2014
State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems are very complex, combining multiple techniques and involving many types of tuning parameters (e.g., numbers of states and Gaussians in HMMs, numbers of neurons/layers and learning rates in neural networks, etc.).

The comparison of different PDP-type self-adaptive schemes for the cooperation of GA, DE, and PSO algorithms [PDF]

open access: yesITM Web of Conferences
Many global optimization problems are presented as a black-box model, in which there is no information on the objective function properties. Traditional optimization algorithms usually can't effectively solve that kind of problems.

Continuous black-box optimization with an Ising machine and random subspace coding

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
A black-box optimization algorithm such as Bayesian optimization finds the extremum of an unknown function by alternating the inference of the underlying function and optimization of an acquisition function.

Sharpness-Aware Black-Box Optimization

open access: yesCoRR
Black-box optimization algorithms have been widely used in various machine learning problems, including reinforcement learning and prompt fine-tuning. However, directly optimizing the training loss value, as commonly done in existing black-box optimization methods, could lead to suboptimal model quality and generalization performance.

Distributed black-box optimization of nonconvex functions [PDF]

open access: yes2015 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2015
We combine model-based methods and distributed stochastic approximation to propose a fully distributed algorithm for nonconvex optimization, with good empirical performance and convergence guarantees. Neither the expression of the objective nor its gradient are known.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Improving the adversarial transferability with relational graphs ensemble adversarial attack

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
In transferable black-box attacks, adversarial samples remain adversarial across multiple models and are more likely to attack unknown models. From this view, acquiring and exploiting multiple models is the key to improving transferability.

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

Agent-Based Collaborative Random Search for Hyperparameter Tuning and Global Function Optimization

open access: yesSystems, 2023
Hyperparameter optimization is one of the most tedious yet crucial steps in training machine learning models. There are numerous methods for this vital model-building stage, ranging from domain-specific manual tuning guidelines suggested by the oracles ...
