Pros of NNI

More comprehensive and flexible, supporting a wider range of ML tasks and frameworks
Offers a user-friendly web UI for experiment management and visualization
Provides more advanced hyperparameter tuning algorithms and techniques

Cons of NNI

Steeper learning curve due to its extensive features and options
May require more setup and configuration compared to AutoML's simpler approach
Less integrated with Google Cloud services for large-scale distributed training

Code Comparison

NNI:

import nni

@nni.trace
def run_trial(params):
    # Your model training code here
    return accuracy

if __name__ == '__main__':
    nni.run(run_trial)

AutoML:

from google.cloud import automl_v1beta1 as automl

client = automl.AutoMlClient()
dataset = client.create_dataset(project_location, my_dataset)
model = client.create_model(project_location, my_model)

NNI offers more flexibility in defining custom search spaces and integrating with existing code, while AutoML provides a more streamlined, cloud-based approach for specific tasks like image classification or natural language processing. NNI's code allows for fine-grained control over the optimization process, whereas AutoML abstracts away much of the complexity, making it easier to use for beginners but potentially less customizable.

optuna

10,708

A hyperparameter optimization framework

Pros of Optuna

More flexible and customizable for various optimization tasks
Supports a wider range of hyperparameter types and distributions
Active community and frequent updates

Cons of Optuna

Requires more manual configuration compared to AutoML's automated approach
May have a steeper learning curve for beginners
Less integrated with other Google Cloud services

Code Comparison

Optuna:

import optuna

def objective(trial):
    x = trial.suggest_float('x', -10, 10)
    return (x - 2) ** 2

study = optuna.create_study()
study.optimize(objective, n_trials=100)

AutoML:

from google.cloud import automl_v1beta1 as automl

client = automl.AutoMlClient()
dataset = client.create_dataset(project_path, dataset_config)
model = client.create_model(project_path, model_config)

The code snippets demonstrate the different approaches: Optuna focuses on defining an objective function and optimization process, while AutoML abstracts much of the process behind API calls for dataset and model creation.

autokeras

9,129

AutoML library for deep learning

Pros of AutoKeras

Open-source and free to use, allowing for greater community involvement and customization
Built on top of Keras, providing a familiar API for many deep learning practitioners

model = client.create_model(project_id, dataset_id)

auto-sklearn:

import autosklearn.classification
import sklearn.model_selection
import sklearn.datasets
import sklearn.metrics

X, y = sklearn.datasets.load_digits(return_X_y=True)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = sklearn.model_selection.train_test_split(X, y, random_state=1)

automl = autosklearn.classification.AutoSklearnClassifier()
automl.fit(X_train, y_train)
y_pred = automl.predict(X_test)
print("Accuracy score:", sklearn.metrics.accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred))
