Neural Architecture Search: A Survey

Users: 1 - Average Rating: 4.00


The article is about automated neural architecture search (NAS) methods. Automated search methods have arisen attention because manually adjusting of parameters by human experts, which is the current practice, is a time-consuming and prone to errors process. This article reviews the existing work in this field of research, dividing the material according to three dimensions, which are the three key steps of NAS methods: search space (defining which architectures can be represented), search strategy (detailing how to explore the search space, often exponentially large or even unbounded), and performance estimation strategy (the process of estimating the performance of each tested architecture).
