Best Practices for Hyperparameter Tuning with MLflow

5 recomendaciones•5,573 vistas
Hyperparameter tuning and optimization is a powerful tool in the area of AutoML, for both traditional statistical learning models as well as for deep learning. There are many existing tools to help drive this process, including both blackbox and whitebox tuning. In this talk, we'll start with a brief survey of the most popular techniques for hyperparameter tuning (e.g., grid search, random search, Bayesian optimization, and parzen estimators) and then discuss the open source tools which implement each of these techniques. Finally, we will discuss how we can leverage MLflow with these tools and techniques to analyze how our search is performing and to productionize the best models. Speaker: Joseph Bradley

- 14. Manual search Select hyperparameter settings to try based on human intuition. 2 hyperparameters: • [0, ..., 5] • {A, B, ..., F} Expert knowledge tells us to try: (2,C), (2,D), (2,E), (3,C), (3,D), (3,E) A B C D E F 0 1 2 3 4 5
- 15. Grid Search Try points on a grid defined by ranges and step sizes X-axis: {A,...,F} Y-axis: 0-5, step = 1 A B C D E F 0 1 2 3 4 5

Instrumenting tuning with What to track in a run for a model • Hyperparameters: all vs. ones being tuned • Metric(s): training & validation, loss & objective, multiple objectives • Tags: provenance, simple metadata • Artifacts: serialized model, large metadata Tip: Tune full pipeline, not 1 model.
- 43. Analyzing how tuning performs Questions to answer • Am I tuning the right hyperparameters? • Am I exploring the right parts of the search space? • Do I need to do another round of tuning? Examining results • Simple case: visualize param vs metric • Challenges: multiple params and metrics, iterative experimentation
