Definitely, Jasper Snoek's code and/or algorithms should be useful for
this. I think his spearmint code is applicable to all cases where grid
search is otherwise applicable. We've been talking about how great it
would be to make hyperopt and spearmint more compatible, but it hasn't
happened yet. This would be a good reason to build some kind of
compatibility layer.
(Jasper, are you on the sklearn mailing list?)
