Computational model for neural architecture search
A long-standing goal in Deep Learning (DL) research is to design efficient architectures for a given dataset that are both accurate and computationally inexpensive. At present, designing deep learning architectures for a real-world application requires both human expertise and considerable effort as they are either handcrafted by careful experimentation or modified from a handful of existing models. This method is inefficient as the process of architecture design is highly time-consuming and computationally expensive.
The research presents an approach to automate the process of deep learning architecture design through a modeling procedure. In particular, it first introduces a framework that treats the deep learning architecture design problem as a systems architecting problem. The framework provides the ability to utilize novel and intuitive search spaces to find efficient architectures using evolutionary methodologies. Secondly, it uses a parameter sharing approach to speed up the search process and explores its limitations with search space. Lastly, it introduces a multi-objective approach to facilitate architecture design based on hardware constraints that are often associated with real-world deployment.
From the modeling perspective, instead of designing and staging explicit algorithms to process images/sentences, the contribution lies in the design of hybrid architectures that use the deep learning literature developed so far. This approach enjoys the benefit of a single problem formulation to perform end-to-end training and architecture design with limited computational resources --Abstract, page iii
A survey of QoS-aware web service composition techniques
Web service composition can be briefly described as the process of aggregating services with disparate functionalities into a new composite service in order to meet increasingly complex needs of users. Service composition process has been accurate on dealing with services having disparate functionalities, however, over the years the number of web services in particular that exhibit similar functionalities and varying Quality of Service (QoS) has significantly increased. As such, the problem becomes how to select appropriate web services such that the QoS of the resulting composite service is maximized or, in some cases, minimized. This constitutes an NP-hard problem as it is complicated and difficult to solve. In this paper, a discussion of concepts of web service composition and a holistic review of current service composition techniques proposed in literature is presented. Our review spans several publications in the field that can serve as a road map for future research

A Survey on Surrogate-assisted Efficient Neural Architecture Search
Neural architecture search (NAS) has become increasingly popular in the deep
learning community recently, mainly because it can provide an opportunity to
allow interested users without rich expertise to benefit from the success of
deep neural networks (DNNs). However, NAS is still laborious and time-consuming
because a large number of performance estimations are required during the
search process of NAS, and training DNNs is computationally intensive. To solve
the major limitation of NAS, improving the efficiency of NAS is essential in
the design of NAS. This paper begins with a brief introduction to the general
framework of NAS. Then, the methods for evaluating network candidates under the
proxy metrics are systematically discussed. This is followed by a description
of surrogate-assisted NAS, which is divided into three different categories,
namely Bayesian optimization for NAS, surrogate-assisted evolutionary
algorithms for NAS, and MOP for NAS. Finally, remaining challenges and open
research questions are discussed, and promising research topics are suggested
in this emerging field.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figure
