This repository contains the official code for our ICML 2024 paper. This main branch provides the Freeze-Thaw PFN surrogate (FT-PFN) surrogate model as a drop-in surrogate for multi-fidelity Bayesian Optimization loops. Along with the synthetic prior generation and training code. To reproduce experiments from the above paper version, please refer to the branch icml-2024.

To use the ifBO algorithm in practice, please refer to NePS, a package for hyperparameter optimization that maintains the latest, improved ifBO version (TBA, TODO).

conda create -n ifBO-env python=3.10 setuptools
conda activate ifBO-env
pip install -e .
