Fast Rank-1 Lattice Targeted Sampling for Black-box Optimization

Black-box optimization has gained great attention for its success in recent applications. However, scaling up to high-dimensional problems with good query efficiency remains challenging. This paper proposes a novel Rank-1 Lattice Targeted Sampling (RLTS) technique to address this issue. Our RLTS benefits from random rank-1 lattice Quasi-Monte Carlo, which enables us to perform fast local exact Gaussian processes (GP) training and inference with $O(n \log n)$ complexity w.r.t.
