Get rid of SurrogateRunner and SurrogateBenchmarkProblem

Open esantorella opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

Summary: Context: This diff cuts over over uses of SurrogateRunner to use ParamBasedTestProblemRunner with a test_problem that is the newly introduced SurrogateTestFunction, and the following diff after that will bring us down to only one runner class for benchmarking by merging ParamBasedTestProblemRunner into BenchmarkRunner. Having only one runner will make it easier to enable asynchronous benchmarks. Currently, SurrogateRunner had its own logic for tracking when trials are completed, which would make it difficult to work in with asynchronicity.

Note on naming: Some names have become non-intuitive in the process of benchmarking. To accord with some future changes I hope to make, I called a new class SurrogateTestFunction, whereas SurrogateParamBasedTestProblem would be more in line with the old naming.

The name changes I hope to make:

  • ParamBasedTestProblemRunner -> nothing, absorbed into BenchmarkRunner
  • ParamBasedTestProblem -> TestFunction, to emphasize that all it does is generate data (rather than more generally specify the problem we are solving) and that it is deterministic, and to differentiate it from BenchmarkProblem. BenchmarkTestFunction would also be a candidate.
  • BoTorchTestProblem -> BoTorchTestFunction

Changes in this diff:

  • Introduces SurrogateTestFunction, a ParamBasedTestProblem for * Removes SurrogateRunner. There is some loss of (unused) functionality here; dict-valued 'noise_std' is no longer supported. I expect we will eventually want that, but it doesn't need to be done now.
  • Changed predict_for_tensor utility function to use a SurrogateTestFunction rather than a SurrogateRunner
  • Removed SurrogateRunner from the json_store registry. There is no point in keeping it around for backward compatibility since it was just deserializing to a dummy SyntheticRunner anyway.
