The feature set is pretty similar to spearmint. We have found that the MOE
GP package is much more robust than the code in spearmint though (it was
open sourced by yelp and is used in production there).
In contrast to hyperopt, osprey is a little bit more geared towards ML, in

Looks neat, but how does it differ from hyperopt or spearmint?

Hey,
I started working on a project for hyperparmeter optimization of sklearn
models.
The package is here: https://github.com/rmcgibbo/osprey. It's designed to
be easy

I think the Perceptron is not a good candidate. I'd rather choose
SGDClassifier (you can thus add the loss function to the parameter
space). Perceptron in scikit
Hi there,
I presume some of you may have already seen this, but if not, caret in R is
a nice example of how to do model selection with a unified interface to a
variety of class & reg. methods:

Further to this: I started a project on github to look at how to
combine hyperopt with sklearn.

I've only wrapped on algorithm so far: Perceptron

Interesting to see this thread revived! FYI I've made hyperopt a lot
friendlier since that original posting.

1. It has docs.
2. The minimization interface is based on an fmin() function, that
should be pretty accessible.

In my point of view, to optimize the hyperparameters can not use standard
optimization techniques(or else it will become a parameters and cannot be
set empirically?) So some heuristic in brute force searching maybe a good
idea. I am thinking another heuristic to accelerate such process: maybe a

Hello, scikiters,
Recent work by James Bergstra demonstrated that careful hyperparameter
optimization, as well as careless random sampling, is often better
than manual searching for many problems. You can see results in the
