Bayesian optimization has become a standard technique for hyperparameter optimization , including data-intensive models such as deep neural networks that may take days or weeks to train . We consider the setting where previous optimization runs are available , and we wish to use their results to warm-start a new optimization run . We develop an ensemble model that can incorporate the results of past optimization runs , while avoiding the poor scaling that comes with putting all results into a single Gaussian process model . The ensemble combines models from past runs according to estimates of their generalization performance on the current optimization . Results from a large collection of hyperparameter optimization benchmark problems and from optimization of a production computer vision platform at Facebook show that the ensemble can substantially reduce the time it takes to obtain near-optimal configurations , and is useful for warm-starting expensive searches or running quick re-optimizations . Gaussian processes , for example , make good surrogate models as they provide probability distributions over labels . Recent work on SMBO also includes meta-data , i.e. observed hyperparameter performances on other data sets , into the process of hyperparameter optimization . This can , for example , be accomplished by learning transfer surrogate models on all available instances of meta-knowledge ; however , the increasing amount of meta-information can make Gaussian processes infeasible , as they require the inversion of a large covariance matrix which grows with the number of instances . Neural architecture search ( NAS ) is a promising research direction that has the potential to replace expert-designed networks with learned , task-specific architectures . In this work , in order to help ground the empirical results in this field , we propose new NAS baselines that build off the following observations : ( i ) NAS is a specialized hyperparameter optimization problem ; and ( ii ) random search is a competitive baseline for hyperparameter optimization . Leveraging these observations , we evaluate both random search with early-stopping and a novel random search with weight-sharing algorithm on two standard NAS benchmarks --- PTB and CIFAR-10 . Although there exist several automatic optimization techniques , these usually take significant resources , increasing the dynamic complexity in order to obtain a great accuracy . Since one of the most critical aspects in this computational consume is the available dataset , among others , in this paper we perform a study of the effect of using different partitions of a dataset in the hyperparameter optimization phase over the efficiency of a Machine Learning algorithm . Nonparametric inference has been used to measure the rate of different behaviors of the accuracy , time , and spatial complexity that are obtained among the partitions and the whole dataset . As a hyperparameter optimization algorithm , we used SMAC . Our approach managed to improve model selection and hyperparameter optimization process , by sustaining the exploration-exploitation trade-off and spending available time budget more wisely . Working with any gradient-based machine learning algorithm involves the tedious task of tuning the optimizer 's hyperparameters , such as the learning rate . There exist many techniques for automated hyperparameter optimization , but they typically introduce even more hyperparameters to control the hyperparameter optimization process . We propose to instead learn the hyperparameters themselves by gradient descent , and furthermore to learn the hyper-hyperparameters by gradient descent as well , and so on ad infinitum . Traditional hyperparameter selection methods include manual model tuning , grid , or random search but these require expert domain knowledge or are computationally burdensome . On the other hand , Bayesian optimization and evolutionary inspired techniques have surfaced as viable alternatives to the hyperparameter problem . In this work , an alternative automated system that combines the advantages of evolutionary processes and state-of-the-art Bayesian optimization is proposed . Prior is weak but general and effective . Bayesian Optimization - Frame Hyperparameter Search as an Optimization Problem - Model the estimation of the function from high level parameters ( hyperparameters ) to the error metric as a regression problem - Use G.P Prior : Stochastic gradient descent with a batch size of 500 is used . subsection : Parameter optimization Table [ reference ] contains the four parameters to be optimized : the number of convolutions , the number of hidden layers , the number of units per hidden layer and the dropout factor . subsection : Hyperparameter optimization As we believe that algorithms should be robust with respect to the choice of hyperparameters , we spent little effort on parameter optimization . In total , we explored three distinct values of learning rates and two values of ADAM momentum ( the default and zero ) and two values of on a subset of 7 Atari games without prioritization using non - distributional version of Reactor . The pre - training stops after iterations . Note that for the hyperparameter selection , we randomly choose samples each class as the training set , and the rest as validation . After the grid search of hyperparameters , we fix them and mix up all samples ( classes , samples each class ) , in order to do the final pre - training . Architectures with a higher validation accuracy during the search phase may perform worse in the evaluation . Aiming to alleviate this common issue , we introduce sequential greedy architecture search ( SGAS ) , an efficient method for neural architecture search . By dividing the search procedure into sub-problems , SGAS chooses and prunes candidate operations in a greedy fashion . Furthermore , techniques for automatically generating a suitable deep learning architecture for a given dataset have frequently made use of reinforcement learning and evolutionary methods which take extensive computational resources and time . We propose a new framework for neural architecture search based on a hill-climbing procedure using morphism operators that makes use of a novel gradient update scheme . The update is based on the aging of neural network layers and results in the reduction in the overall training time . Efficient search is a core issue in Neural Architecture Search ( NAS ) . It is difficult for conventional NAS algorithms to directly search the architectures on large-scale tasks like ImageNet . Many implementations can only produce trees in an offline manner and in a greedy manner . We explore ways to convert existing GBDT implementations to known neural network architectures with minimal performance loss in order to allow decision splits to be updated in an online manner and provide extensions to allow splits points to be altered as a neural architecture search problem . We provide learning bounds for our neural network . In order to find an optimal architecture for a given dataset in the proposed search space , we leverage an efficient sequential model-based exploration approach that is tailored for the problem . We demonstrate the value of posing multimodal fusion as a neural architecture search problem by extensive experimentation on a toy dataset and two other real multimodal datasets . We discover fusion architectures that exhibit state-of-the-art performance for problems with different domain and dataset size , including the \ntu ~ dataset , the largest multimodal action recognition dataset available . Our method implicitly estimates the gradients of a scaled loss function while retaining the general properties intact for parameter updates . Besides providing improved performance on few-shot tasks , our framework could be easily extended to do network architecture search . We further propose a novel dual encoder , affinity-score based decoder topology that achieves additional improvements to performance . However , structural information , which encodes local topology among entities , is also important to KG . In this work , we propose S2E to distill structural information and combine it with semantic information for different KGs as a neural architecture search ( NAS ) problem . First , we analyze the difficulty of using a unified model to solve the distillation problem . The Neural Architecture Search ( NAS ) problem is typically formulated as a graph search problem where the goal is to learn the optimal operations over edges in order to maximise a graph-level global objective . Due to the large architecture parameter space , efficiency is a key bottleneck preventing NAS from its practical use . Latest algorithms for automatic neural architecture search perform remarkable but few of them can effectively design the number of channels for convolutional neural networks and consume less computational efforts . In this paper , we propose a method for efficient automatic architecture search which is special to the widths of networks instead of the connections of neural architecture . Latest algorithms for automatic neural architecture search perform remarkable but are basically directionless in search space and computational expensive in the training of every intermediate architecture . In this paper , we propose a method for efficient architecture search called EENA ( Efficient Evolution of Neural Architecture ) . We formulate this problem as the optimization of a set function -- we find that the empirical behavior of this set function often ( but not always ) satisfies marginal gain and monotonicity principles -- properties central to the idea of submodularity . Based on this observation , we adapt algorithms within discrete optimization to obtain heuristic schemes for neural network architecture search , where we have resource constraints on the architecture . This simple scheme when applied on CIFAR-100 and ImageNet , identifies resource-constrained architectures with quantifiably better performance than current state-of-the-art models designed for mobile devices .

When compared with random initialization using standard datasets in machine learning such as MNIST , and CIFAR-10 , the proposed approach shows to be promissory on the neural architectural search domain , outperforming the commonly used random initialization . We will end with a discussion of approaches for teaching AutoML . The workshop is appropriate for faculty who have no previous experience with machine learning as well as experienced machine learning researchers who have not been exposed to AutoML . The instructor has won both college-wide and university-wide teaching awards and has taught ML for a decade and AutoML for two years at both the undergraduate and graduate level , and his book entitled Automated Machine Learning for Business is under contract with Oxford University Press . The sensitivity of machine learning ( ML ) algorithms w.r.t . their hyper-parameters and the difficulty of finding the ML algorithm and hyper-parameter setting best suited to a given dataset has led to the rapidly developing field of automated machine learning ( AutoML ) , at the crossroad of meta-learning and structured optimization . Several international AutoML challenges have been organized since 2015 , motivating the development of the Bayesian optimization-based approach Auto-Sklearn ( Feurer et al. , 2015 ) and the Bandit-based approach Hyperband ( Li et al. , 2016 ) . To guide the design of ATMSeer , we derive a workflow of using AutoML based on interviews with machine learning experts . A multi-granularity visualization is proposed to enable users to monitor the AutoML process , analyze the searched models , and refine the search space in real time . We demonstrate the utility and usability of ATMSeer through two case studies , expert interviews , and a user study with 13 end users . In the context of the Automated Machine Learning ( AutoML ) process , one main advantage of meta-learning techniques is that they allow hand-engineered algorithms to be replaced with novel automated methods which are designed in a data-driven way . In this paper , we present a methodology and framework for using Meta-Learning techniques to develop new methods that serve as an effective decision support for the AutoML process . In particular , we use Meta-Learning techniques to answer several crucial questions for the AutoML process including : 1 ) Which classifiers are expected to be the best performing on a given dataset ? First , we introduce a holistic problem formulation . Next , approaches for solving various subproblems of AutoML are presented . Finally , we provide an extensive empirical evaluation of the presented approaches on synthetic and real data . The base predictors can be obtained cheaply from down-scaled and experienced tasks . Experimental results on real-world AutoML problems verify that the proposed framework can accelerate derivative-free configuration search significantly by making use of the multi-fidelity evaluations . This contribution presents a very brief and critical discussion on automated machine learning ( AutoML ) , which is categorized here into two classes , referred to as narrow AutoML and generalized AutoML , respectively . The conclusions yielded from this discussion can be summarized as follows : ( 1 ) most existent research on AutoML belongs to the class of narrow AutoML ; ( 2 ) advances in narrow AutoML are mainly motivated by commercial needs , while any possible benefit obtained is definitely at a cost of increase in computing burdens ; (3)the concept of generalized AutoML has a strong tie in spirit with artificial general intelligence ( AGI ) , also called " strong AI " , for which obstacles abound for obtaining pivotal progresses .

Data Science Machine and One Button Machine are pioneering researches that explored the possibility of feature synthesis from raw relational data by applying linear exploratory algorithms which increase the dimensionality of the feature matrix exponentially , and hence , they consume a lot of time and memory . This tutorial paper summarizes selective research results from the field of automated requirement engineering . Automatization is achieved by employing natural language processing techniques .
