Goes back to the early 60s and Feldbaum. | |

| Jun 8, 2022 at 1:07 | comment | added | Mark L. Stone | Well, perhaps "Efficient Global Optimization of Expensive Black-Box Functions" researchgate.net/profile/Donald-Jones-5/publication/… published in 1998 might have been the 1st publication in which the "modern" version of Bayesian Optimization was considered, which formulated trade off between exploration and exploitation, although not quite called as such. That is after your 1991 paper.. | |
| Jun 8, 2022 at 0:46 | comment | added | Mark L. Stone | Exploration vs. Exploitation is a big thing in Bayesian optimization. Bayesian optimization publications go back to the early 70s. I don't know when exploration vs. exploitation started being considered in that literature, and when it was called as such. | |
