Machine learning techniques lend themselves as promising decision-making and analytic tools in a wide range of applications. Different ML algorithms have various hyper-parameters. In order to tailor an ML model towards a specific application, a large number of hyper-parameters should be tuned. Tuning the hyper-parameters directly affects the performance (accuracy and run-time). However, for large-scale search spaces, efficiently exploring the ample number of combinations of hyper-parameters is computationally challenging. Existing automated hyper-parameter tuning techniques suffer from high time complexity. In this paper, we propose HyP-ABC, an automatic innovative hybrid hyper-parameter optimization algorithm using the modified artificial bee colony approach, to measure the classification accuracy of three ML algorithms, namely random forest, extreme gradient boosting, and support vector machine. Compared to the state-of-the-art techniques, HyP-ABC is more efficient and has a limited number of parameters to be tuned, making it worthwhile for real-world hyper-parameter optimization problems. We further compare our proposed HyP-ABC algorithm with state-of-the-art techniques. In order to ensure the robustness of the proposed method, the algorithm takes a wide range of feasible hyper-parameter values, and is tested using a real-world educational dataset.

This paper proposes the first-ever algorithmic framework for tuning hyper-parameters of stochastic optimization algorithm based on reinforcement learning. Hyper-parameters impose significant influences on the performance of stochastic optimization al
gorithms, such as evolutionary algorithms (EAs) and meta-heuristics. Yet, it is very time-consuming to determine optimal hyper-parameters due to the stochastic nature of these algorithms. We propose to model the tuning procedure as a Markov decision process, and resort the policy gradient algorithm to tune the hyper-parameters. Experiments on tuning stochastic algorithms with different kinds of hyper-parameters (continuous and discrete) for different optimization problems (continuous and discrete) show that the proposed hyper-parameter tuning algorithms do not require much less running times of the stochastic algorithms than bayesian optimization method. The proposed framework can be used as a standard tool for hyper-parameter tuning in stochastic algorithms.
Machine learning is a powerful method for modeling in different fields such as education. Its capability to accurately predict students success makes it an ideal tool for decision-making tasks related to higher education. The accuracy of machine lear
ning models depends on selecting the proper hyper-parameters. However, it is not an easy task because it requires time and expertise to tune the hyper-parameters to fit the machine learning model. In this paper, we examine the effectiveness of automated hyper-parameter tuning techniques to the realm of students success. Therefore, we develop two automated Hyper-Parameter Optimization methods, namely grid search and random search, to assess and improve a previous studys performance. The experiment results show that applying random search and grid search on machine learning algorithms improves accuracy. We empirically show automated methods superiority on real-world educational data (MIDFIELD) for tuning HPs of conventional machine learning classifiers. This work emphasizes the effectiveness of automated hyper-parameter optimization while applying machine learning in the education field to aid faculties, directors, or non-expert users decisions to improve students success.
We study a budgeted hyper-parameter tuning problem, where we optimize the tuning result under a hard resource constraint. We propose to solve it as a sequential decision making problem, such that we can use the partial training progress of configurat
ions to dynamically allocate the remaining budget. Our algorithm combines a Bayesian belief model which estimates the future performance of configurations, with an action-value function which balances exploration-exploitation tradeoff, to optimize the final output. It automatically adapts the tuning behaviors to different constraints, which is useful in practice. Experiment results demonstrate superior performance over existing algorithms, including the-state-of-the-art one, on real-world tuning tasks across a range of different budgets.
Hyperparameter optimisation is a crucial process in searching the optimal machine learning model. The efficiency of finding the optimal hyperparameter settings has been a big concern in recent researches since the optimisation process could be time-c
onsuming, especially when the objective functions are highly expensive to evaluate. In this paper, we introduce an intelligent evolutionary optimisation algorithm which applies machine learning technique to the traditional evolutionary algorithm to accelerate the overall optimisation process of tuning machine learning models in classification problems. We demonstrate our Intelligent Evolutionary Optimisation (IEO)in a series of controlled experiments, comparing with traditional evolutionary optimisation in hyperparameter tuning. The empirical study shows that our approach accelerates the optimisation speed by 30.40% on average and up to 77.06% in the best scenarios.
Training and inference efficiency of deep neural networks highly rely on the performance of tensor operators on hardware platforms. Manually optimizing tensor operators has limitations in terms of supporting new operators or hardware platforms. There
fore, automatically optimizing device code configurations of tensor operators is getting increasingly attractive. However, current methods for tensor operator optimization usually suffer from poor sample-efficiency due to the combinatorial search space. In this work, we propose a novel evolutionary method, OpEvo, which efficiently explores the search spaces of tensor operators by introducing a topology-aware mutation operation based on q-random walk to leverage the topological structures over the search spaces. Our comprehensive experiment results show that compared with state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods OpEvo can find the best configuration with the lowest variance and least efforts in the number of trials and wall-clock time. All code of this work is available online.
