    r"""Construct an augmented Chebyshev scalarization.

    Outcomes are first normalized to [0,1] and then an augmented
    Chebyshev scalarization is applied.

    Augmented Chebyshev scalarization:
        objective(y) = min(w * y) + alpha * sum(w * y)

    Note: this assumes maximization.

    See [Knowles2005]_ for details.

    This scalarization can be used with qExpectedImprovement to implement q-ParEGO
    as proposed in [Daulton2020qehvi]_.

    Args:
        weights: A `m`-dim tensor of weights.
        Y: A `n x m`-dim tensor of observed outcomes, which are used for
            scaling the outcomes to [0,1].
        alpha: Parameter governing the influence of the weighted sum term. The
            default value comes from [Knowles2005]_.

    Returns:
        Transform function using the objective weights.

    Example:
        >>> weights = torch.tensor([0.75, 0.25])
        >>> transform = get_aug_chebyshev_scalarization(weights, Y)
