报告简介：

Neural architecture search is a useful step towards automated machine learning in that it is able design deep neural networks through a learning or optimization process. However, not much work has been done on search of optimal neural architectures when the training data are distributed on multiple sites and subject to privacy protection. This talk introduces two recent algorithms that perform neural architecture search in a federated environment using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms. We focus on the efficient representation of deep neural architectures, handling multiple objectives in learning, and reducing computational complexity of the neural architecture search process.
