Introducing ENAS-PyTorch, a PyTorch implementation of “Efficient Neural Architecture Search via Parameters Sharing. ENAS reduce the computational requirement (GPU-hours) of Neural Architecture Search (NAS) by 1000x. This is done via parameter sharing between models that are subgraphs within a large computational graph.
