Concur w/Brian. While the authors present genuine contributions, meta-learning doesn't apply well to zero-sized architectures. I didn't get a lot from the article, the arxiv link for the work done is https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.00332 Best, -Chaz On Sun, Mar 24, 2019 at 4:17 PM Brian Lee wrote: > this doesn't actually speed up the neural networks that much; it's a > technique to more quickly brute-force the search space of possible neural > networks for ones that execute faster while maintaining similar accuracy. > Typical hype article. > > Anyway, the effort spent looking for bizarre architectures is probably > better spent doing more iterations of zero-style self-play with the same > architecture, since it seems likely we haven't maxed out the strength of > our existing architectures. > > On Sun, Mar 24, 2019 at 6:29 PM Ray Tayek wrote: > >> >> https://www.extremetech.com/computing/288152-mit-develops-algorithm-to-accelerate-neural-networks-by-200x >> >> i wonder how much this would speed up go programs? >> >> thanks >> >> -- >> Honesty is a very expensive gift.

Re: [Computer-go] mit-develops-algorithm-to-accelerate-neural-networks-by-200x
this doesn't actually speed up the neural networks that much; it's a technique to more quickly brute-force the search space of possible neural networks for ones that execute faster while maintaining similar accuracy. Typical hype article. Anyway, the effort spent looking for bizarre architectures is probably better spent doing more iterations of zero-style self-play with the same architecture, since it seems likely we haven't maxed out the strength of our existing architectures.
