Embodiment Construction

[0052] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for neural architecture search. When faced with the task of having to provide a neural network for performing a selected task, neural architecture search is used to identify a preferred model for such a neural network. A preferred model can be identified based on an analysis of multiple candidate models. Identifying the preferred model involves providing a computational graph consisting of multiple distinct nodes connected by multiple edges. A computation graph can be thought of as providing multiple subgraphs (subgraphs can be thought of as "candidate models"). Each subgraph is a selection of some nodes and edges in the computational graph.

[0053] A computational graph includes a number of weights that scale information as it flows through the network (e.g., between different nodes). Weights may be applied between nodes such that items of input data received at a node may be scaled based on the pr...

Abstract

A computer-implemented method of neural architecture search is disclosed. Embodiments may provide a neural network (100) configured to perform a selected task. A computational graph (200) is obtainedwhich includes a plurality of nodes, edges and weightings associated with the nodes / edges. The computational graph (200) includes a plurality of candidate models in the form of subgraphs (301,302) ofthe computational graph (200). Selected subgraphs are trained sequentially, with the weightings corresponding to each said subgraph being updated in response to training. For each weighting in a subgraph which is shared with another subgraph, updates to the weightings (in response to training that subgraph) are controlled based on an indication of how important to the another subgraph a node / edgeassociated with that weighting is.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of neural architecture search. In particular, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for designing neural networks. Background technique [0002] By providing enhanced computing power and access to increasing amounts of suitable training data, machine learning techniques have been increasingly used to provide improved solutions to many technical problems. In particular, the use of neural networks has become increasingly common as a means of providing concise and effective solutions to many of these technical problems. [0003] A neural network typically has a structure comprising many interconnected neurons. Each neuron in the network is arranged to receive input data, which the neuron scales and performs a function on before providing some output data. This output data can then be fed into subsequent neurons as input data for subsequent neurons. These subsequent neurons can then likewise s...
