Original Abstract Submitted

methods, computer systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for training a neural network for performing a task. the system maintains data specifying (i) a plurality of candidate neural networks and (ii) a partitioning of the plurality of candidate neural networks into a plurality of partitions. the system repeatedly performs operations, including: training each of the candidate neural networks; evaluating each candidate neural network using a respective fitness function for the partition; and for each partition, updating the respective values of the one or more hyperparameters for at least one of the candidate neural networks in the partition based on the respective fitness metrics of the candidate neural networks in the partition. after repeatedly performing the operations, the system selects, from the maintained data, the respective values of the network parameters of one of the candidate neural networks.
