DEHB-WS: Joint Architecture and Hyperparameter Search with Weight Sharing

Zahra Padar, Sharat Patil, Sai Prasanna

Python version: 3.8

Install requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run DEHB-WS pipeline

Warmstart Supernet:

python3 warm_train_supernet.py

Run DEHB-WS:

python3 run_hpo_nas.py --configs defaults dehbws --seed 13

Logs and trained model are stored at: results/dehbws_results/{seed}

Finetune and evaluate incumbent:

python3 finetune.py

Tuned models are saved at: results/dehbws_results/{seed}

Run DEHB or SMAC4MF

python3 run_hpo_nas.py --configs defaults {dehb/smac} --seed 13
