Twin Support Vector Regression, Bayesian Optimization, Hyperparameter Tuning, Regression.Abstract
This study addresses the challenge of optimizing the predictive performance of Twin Support Vector Regression (TSVR) models on complex datasets by employing Bayesian Optimization (BO) for automatic hyperparameter tuning. As an enhanced variant of Support Vector Regression (SVR), TSVR achieves significantly greater computational efficiency by solving two smaller-scale quadratic programming problems. Within the Bayesian optimization framework, the construction of a posterior probability model enables efficient exploration of the hyperparameter space, thereby overcoming the inefficiency limitations of traditional methods. Experimental validation demonstrates that the BO-optimized TSVR model achieves significant reductions in Mean Squared Error (MSE) across multiple synthetic datasets, while simultaneously exhibiting superior predictive accuracy and generalization capability. The significance of this research lies not only in its improvement of TSVR model performance but also in its provision of a novel approach for hyperparameter optimization in machine learning, possessing substantial theoretical and practical merit.
