on ResNet-50 and by 7.3% on MobileNetV2
–Neural Information Processing Systems
Our gains are indeed large. EvoNorm-S0 is the state-of-the-art in the small batch size regime (Table 4), outperforming BN-ReLU by 7.8% We achieve clear gains over other influential works such as GroupNorm (GN). We'd also like to emphasize that EvoNorms beat BN-ReLU on 12 (out of 14) different classification models/training These are significant considering the predominance of BN-ReLU in ML models. R3: "the overall search algorithm lacks some novelty." "yet another AutoML paper" (with the expectation that some fancy search algorithms must be proposed), but rather under R2, R4: Can EvoNorms generalize to deeper variants (e.g., ResNet-101) and architecture families not included MnasNet, EfficientNet-B5, Mask R-CNN + FPN/SpineNet and BigGAN-none of them was used during search.
