CA-BED uses Bayesian experimental design and simulated conversation trees with LLM likelihoods to optimize multi-turn question selection, reporting 21.8% higher success rates than direct prompting on entity-deduction benchmarks.
Bayesian optimization automates the scientific discovery cycle by modeling observations with surrogate models and using acquisition functions to select experiments that balance known information with new exploration.
