A novel multi-objective grammar-based framework for the generation of Convolutional Neural Networks

作者:

Highlights:

• An evolutional framework that optimizes CNNs with no need of an expert is introduced.

• A context-free grammar responsible for modeling the architecture of CNNs is proposed.

• The framework is tested on 5 datasets, guided by two metrics (accuracy and F1-score).

• The results obtained are analyzed and compared to other known architectures.

• The framework is capable of generating models that surpass other known architectures.
