Regularized boosting with an increasing coefficient magnitude stop criterion as meta-learner in hyperparameter optimization stacking ensemble

In Hyperparameter Optimization (HPO), only the hyperparameter configuration with the best performance is chosen after performing several trials, then, discarding the effort of training all the models with every hyperparameter configuration trial and performing an ensemble of all them. This ensemble consists of simply averaging the model predictions or weighting the models by a certain probability. Recently, other more sophisticated ensemble strategies, such as the Caruana method or the stacking strategy has been proposed. On the one hand, the Caruana …
