Document the algorithm behind optuna
See original GitHub issueAs a user/researcher I would like to easily be able to find information on what kind of algorithm stands behind optuna, to be able to make informed decision on using it in my work. Currently main page says only that it does “Bayesian optimization”.
As a user I would like to see detailed documentation about the algorithm behind the Study.optimize
method, when I check the documentation page for this method, so that I can understand what does the method do. Currently the documentation page only says that it “optimizes an objective function”.
