A resource-efficient method for repeated HPO and NAS problems
arXiv preprint arXiv:2103.16111, 2021•arxiv.org
In this work we consider the problem of repeated hyperparameter and neural architecture
search (HNAS). We propose an extension of Successive Halving that is able to leverage
information gained in previous HNAS problems with the goal of saving computational
resources. We empirically demonstrate that our solution is able to drastically decrease costs
while maintaining accuracy and being robust to negative transfer. Our method is significantly
simpler than competing transfer learning approaches, setting a new baseline for transfer …
