Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| jointly optimize architecture and weights in one stage, without retraining | DSNAS on ImageNet · ImageNet classification | total GPU hours: reducing the total time by more than 34% | Helped |
| use one-stage DSNAS instead of SPOSsearch120retrain240 | ImageNet classification · ImageNet validation | Top-1 accuracy: comparable accuracy | No clear effect |
| use DSNAS rather than SPOSsearch120tune120 | ImageNet classification · ImageNet validation | Top-1 accuracy: 1.4% | Helped |
| use DSNAS rather than SPOSsearch240retrain240 | ImageNet classification · ImageNet validation | Top-1 accuracy: 4% | Helped |
| add progressive early stopping instead of selecting an architecture with SPOS evolution at epoch 120 (ablation) | DSNASsearch240 · ImageNet validation | Top-1 accuracy: 1.3% | Helped |
| replace the continuous all-candidate SNAS computation with sampled-subnetwork DSNAS computation | DSNAS · CIFAR-10 | forward time per batch: 0.26s -> 0.05s | Helped |
| replace ProxylessNAS with DSNAS's compact-subnetwork implementation | DSNAS · ImageNet classification | forward time per batch: 3.3s -> 1.9s | Helped |
| use two-stage SPOS or ProxylessNAS, whose search and evaluation performance correlate weakly | two-stage NAS · ImageNet architecture search | Kendall Tau correlation: 0.33; -0.07; -0.33 | Hurt |
