We formulate an asymmetric (or non-commutative) distance between tasks based on Fisher Information Matrices. We provide proof of consistency for our distance through theorems and experiments on various classification tasks. We then apply our proposed measure of task distance in transfer learning on visual tasks in the Taskonomy dataset. Additionally, we show how the proposed distance between a target task and a set of baseline tasks can be used to reduce the neural architecture search space for the target task. The complexity reduction in search space for task-specific architectures is achieved by building on the optimized architectures for similar tasks instead of doing a full search without using this side information. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach and its improvements over other methods.

In this paper, we propose a neural architecture search framework based on a similarity measure between the baseline tasks and the incoming target task. We first define the notion of task similarity based on the log-determinant of the Fisher Informati
on Matrices. Next, we compute the task similarity from each of the baseline tasks to the incoming target task. By utilizing the relation between a target and a set of learned baseline tasks, the search space of architectures for the incoming target task can be significantly reduced, making the discovery of the best candidates in the set of possible architectures tractable and efficient, in terms of GPU days. This method eliminates the requirement for training the networks from scratch for the incoming target task as well as introducing the bias in the initialization of the search space from the human domain. Experimental results with 8 classification tasks in MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets illustrate the efficacy of our proposed approach and its competitiveness with other state-of-art methods in terms of the classification performance, the number of parameters, and the search time.
Recent studies on neural architecture search have shown that automatically designed neural networks perform as good as expert-crafted architectures. While most existing works aim at finding architectures that optimize the prediction accuracy, these a
rchitectures may have complexity and is therefore not suitable being deployed on certain computing environment (e.g., with limited power budgets). We propose MONAS, a framework for Multi-Objective Neural Architectural Search that employs reward functions considering both prediction accuracy and other important objectives (e.g., power consumption) when searching for neural network architectures. Experimental results showed that, compared to the state-ofthe-arts, models found by MONAS achieve comparable or better classification accuracy on computer vision applications, while satisfying the additional objectives such as peak power.
We propose Stochastic Neural Architecture Search (SNAS), an economical end-to-end solution to Neural Architecture Search (NAS) that trains neural operation parameters and architecture distribution parameters in same round of back-propagation, while m
aintaining the completeness and differentiability of the NAS pipeline. In this work, NAS is reformulated as an optimization problem on parameters of a joint distribution for the search space in a cell. To leverage the gradient information in generic differentiable loss for architecture search, a novel search gradient is proposed. We prove that this search gradient optimizes the same objective as reinforcement-learning-based NAS, but assigns credits to structural decisions more efficiently. This credit assignment is further augmented with locally decomposable reward to enforce a resource-efficient constraint. In experiments on CIFAR-10, SNAS takes less epochs to find a cell architecture with state-of-the-art accuracy than non-differentiable evolution-based and reinforcement-learning-based NAS, which is also transferable to ImageNet. It is also shown that child networks of SNAS can maintain the validation accuracy in searching, with which attention-based NAS requires parameter retraining to compete, exhibiting potentials to stride towards efficient NAS on big datasets. We have released our implementation at https://github.com/SNAS-Series/SNAS-Series.
The time and effort involved in hand-designing deep neural networks is immense. This has prompted the development of Neural Architecture Search (NAS) techniques to automate this design. However, NAS algorithms tend to be slow and expensive; they need
to train vast numbers of candidate networks to inform the search process. This could be alleviated if we could partially predict a networks trained accuracy from its initial state. In this work, we examine the overlap of activations between datapoints in untrained networks and motivate how this can give a measure which is usefully indicative of a networks trained performance. We incorporate this measure into a simple algorithm that allows us to search for powerful networks without any training in a matter of seconds on a single GPU, and verify its effectiveness on NAS-Bench-101, NAS-Bench-201, NATS-Bench, and Network Design Spaces. Our approach can be readily combined with more expensive search methods; we examine a simple adaptation of regularised evolutionary search. Code for reproducing our experiments is available at https://github.com/BayesWatch/nas-without-training.
One-Shot Neural architecture search (NAS) attracts broad attention recently due to its capacity to reduce the computational hours through weight sharing. However, extensive experiments on several recent works show that there is no positive correlatio
n between the validation accuracy with inherited weights from the supernet and the test accuracy after re-training for One-Shot NAS. Different from devising a controller to find the best performing architecture with inherited weights, this paper focuses on how to sample architectures to train the supernet to make it more predictive. A single-path supernet is adopted, where only a small part of weights are optimized in each step, to reduce the memory demand greatly. Furthermore, we abandon devising complicated reward based architecture sampling controller, and sample architectures to train supernet based on novelty search. An efficient novelty search method for NAS is devised in this paper, and extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our novelty search based architecture sampling method. The best architecture obtained by our algorithm with the same search space achieves the state-of-the-art test error rate of 2.51% on CIFAR-10 with only 7.5 hours search time in a single GPU, and a validation perplexity of 60.02 and a test perplexity of 57.36 on PTB. We also transfer these search cell structures to larger datasets ImageNet and WikiText-2, respectively.
