The invention provides an evolutionary neural architecture searching method and
system based on similarity agent assistance, and the method comprises the steps: 1, initializing an architecture
population, and selecting an architecture with the best performance as an initial
reference architecture; 2, constructing a graph neural network variant as a feature extractor; 3, constructing an agent model, and training the agent model through a joint
loss function; 4, the high-potential architecture is reserved according to the fitness value, authenticity performance evaluation is carried out on the high-potential architecture, and an
evaluation result is added into the
training set; combining the current
population with the high-performance architecture predicted and screened by the proxy model, and updating the
population through an environment
selection strategy; and step 5, repeating the step 3 and the step 4 until the population performance converges, and finally outputting a
global optimal architecture. According to the method, the high-performance
neural network architecture can be quickly searched under limited computing resources, and an efficient and intelligent novel solution is provided for automatic design and optimization of the neural network.
