• Abstract summary: Neural architecture search (NAS) and hyper parameter optimization (HPO) make deep learning accessible to non-experts. We propose a set of methods that extend current approaches to jointly optimize neural architectures and hyper parameters with respect to multiple objectives. These methods will serve as simple baselines for future research on multi-objective joint NAS + HPO.

• Abstract: Neural architecture search (NAS) and hyperparameter optimization (HPO) make deep learning accessible to non-experts by automatically finding the architecture of the deep neural network to use and tuning the hyperparameters of the used training pipeline. While both NAS and HPO have been studied extensively in recent years, NAS methods typically assume fixed hyperparameters and vice versa - there exists little work on joint NAS + HPO. Furthermore, NAS has recently often been framed as a multi-objective optimization problem, in order to take, e.g., resource requirements into account. In this paper, we propose a set of methods that extend current approaches to jointly optimize neural architectures and hyperparameters with respect to multiple objectives. We hope that these methods will serve as simple baselines for future research on multi-objective joint NAS + HPO. To facilitate this, all our code is available at https://github.com/automl/multi-obj-baselines.

  Neural Architecture Search (NAS) aims to automate the discovery of high-performing deep neural network architectures. Traditional NAS approaches typically optimize a certain performance metric (e.g., prediction accuracy) overlooking large parts of the architecture search space that potentially contain interesting network configurations. This paper presents a novelty search for multi-objective NAS with Multiple Training-Free metrics (MTF-PDNS)

  We propose a novel conditional Neural Architecture Generation (NAG) framework based on diffusion models, dubbed DiffusionNAG. Specifically, we consider the neural architectures as directed graphs and propose a graph diffusion model for generating them. We validate the effectiveness of DiffusionNAG through extensive experiments in two predictor-based NAS scenarios: Transferable NAS and Bayesian Optimization (BO)-based NAS. When integrated into a BO-based algorithm, DiffusionNAG outperforms existing BO-based NAS approaches, particularly in the large MobileNetV3 search space on the ImageNet 1K dataset.
