Query: Teacher Guided Architecture Search   Much of the recent improvement in neural networks for computer vision has
resulted from discovery of new networks architectures. Most prior work has used
the performance of candidate models following limited training to automatically
guide the search in a feasible way. Could further gains in computational
efficiency be achieved by guiding the search via measurements of a high
performing network with unknown detailed architecture (e.g. the primate visual
system)? As one step toward this goal, we use representational similarity
analysis to evaluate the similarity of internal activations of candidate
networks with those of a (fixed, high performing) teacher network. We show that
adopting this evaluation metric could produce up to an order of magnitude in
search efficiency over performance-guided methods. Our approach finds a
convolutional cell structure with similar performance as was previously found
using other methods but at a total computational cost that is two orders of
magnitude lower than Neural Architecture Search (NAS) and more than four times
lower than progressive neural architecture search (PNAS). We further show that
measurements from only ~300 neurons from primate visual system provides enough
signal to find a network with an Imagenet top-1 error that is significantly
lower than that achieved by performance-guided architecture search alone. These
results suggest that representational matching can be used to accelerate
network architecture search in cases where one has access to some or all of the
internal representations of a teacher network of interest, such as the brain's
sensory processing networks.
