Choose RoBO if…
- RoBO is primarily Python; rembo is Matlab.
- Tags unique to RoBO: gaussian processes, python, random forests.
- For tasks requiring robust handling of noisy data in Bayesian Optimization
When NOT to use RoBO
- Avoid if your project strictly requires open-source licenses other than BSD-3-Clause
- Not suitable for users not comfortable installing external dependencies manually
Choose rembo if…
- rembo is primarily Matlab; RoBO is Python.
- Tags unique to rembo: high-dimensional space, random embedding.
- When working with high-dimensional data spaces that require efficient exploration and optimization, making it ideal for problems exceeding typical dimensions
When NOT to use rembo
- For low-dimensional spaces where full Bayesian optimization methods would be more efficient and less complex than random embedding
- In scenarios requiring open-source or licensed software when Rembo's license status is unknown, potentially limiting its use in certain projects
