Neural Ensemble Search for Uncertainty Estimation and Dataset Shift

NeurIPS 2021poster

Ensembles of neural networks achieve superior performance compared to standalone networks in terms of accuracy, uncertainty calibration and robustness to dataset shift. Deep ensembles, a state-of-the-art method for uncertainty estimation, only ensemble random initializations of a fixed architecture.…

Meta-Learning of Neural Architectures for Few-Shot Learning

CVPR 2020oral

The recent progress in neural architecture search (NAS) has allowed scaling the automated design of neural architectures to real-world domains, such as object detection and semantic segmentation. However, one prerequisite for the application of NAS are large amounts of labeled data and compute resou…

Understanding and Robustifying Differentiable Architecture Search

ICLR 2020talk

Differentiable Architecture Search (DARTS) has attracted a lot of attention due to its simplicity and small search costs achieved by a continuous relaxation and an approximation of the resulting bi-level optimization problem. However, DARTS does not work robustly for new problems: we identify a wid…

Efficient Multi-Objective Neural Architecture Search via Lamarckian Evolution

ICLR 2019poster

Architecture search aims at automatically finding neural architectures that are competitive with architectures designed by human experts. While recent approaches have achieved state-of-the-art predictive performance for image recognition, they are problematic under resource constraints for two reaso…

Simple and efficient architecture search for Convolutional Neural Networks

ICLR 2018workshop

Neural networks have recently had a lot of success for many tasks. However, neural network architectures that perform well are still typically designed manually by experts in a cumbersome trial-and-error process. We propose a new method to automatically search for well-performing CNN architectures b…
