One crucial aspect for this progress are novel neural\narchitectures. Currently employed architectures have mostly been developed\nmanually by human experts, which is a time-consuming and error-prone process.\nBecause of this, there is growing interest in automated neural architecture\nsearch methods. We provide an overview of existing work in this field of\nresearch and categorize them according to three dimensions: search space,\nsearch strategy, and performance estimation strategy.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1808.05377v3","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1808.05377v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"neural-architecture-search-a-survey","repo_url":"https://github.com/samuellundberg/NeuralArchitectureSearch","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":{"status":"unanswered"}}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"machine-translation","task_name":"Machine Translation"},{"task_slug":"architecture-search","task_name":"Neural Architecture Search"},{"task_slug":"speech-recognition","task_name":"Speech Recognition"},{"task_slug":"survey","task_name":"Survey"},{"task_slug":"translation","task_name":"Translation"},{"task_slug":"speech-recognition-1","task_name":"speech-recognition"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1808.05377","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
