Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing machine-learning algorithms and project structure in FSharp.Stats to identify suitable extension points for hyperparameter tuning. Define the intended framework scope, supported tuning algorithms, and completion criteria before implementation; the issue does not name specific files, tests, or an entry point.

Description

enhancement

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many Machine learning algorithms take additional hyper parameters which can affect the model performance quite a bit. Finding the best hyper parameter values is called hyper parameter tuning (HPT). There are several approaches to do this.

Describe the solution you'd like
IMO having some kind of HPT framework and some HPT algorithms could well complement the set of machine learning algorithms implemented in FSharp.Stats.
