The growing use of smartphones and IoT devices necessitates efficient time-series analysis on resource-constrained hardware, which is critical for sensing applications such as human activity recognition and air quality prediction. Recent efforts in hardware-aware neural architecture search (NAS) automate architecture discovery for specific platforms; however, none focus on general time-series analysis with edge deployment. Leveraging the problem-solving and reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLM), we propose MONAQ, a novel framework that reformulates NAS into Multi-Objective Neural Architecture Querying tasks. MONAQ is equipped with multimodal query generation for processing multimodal time-series inputs and hardware constraints, alongside an LLM agent-based multi-objective search to achieve deployment-ready models via code generation. By integrating numerical data, time-series images, and textual descriptions, MONAQ improves an LLM's understanding of time-series data. Experiments on fifteen datasets demonstrate that MONAQ-discovered models outperform both handcrafted models and NAS baselines while being more efficient.

This post takes off where the last one left off and talks about building confusion matrices for multi-class classification problems. We load the Iris dataset, split it into training and test sets, build a K-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) classifier that attempts to predict the class of Iris plant (setosa, versicolor, or virginica), and craft a confusion matrix using these predictions. We then describe some additional metrics, including the macro and micro precision, and discuss sklearn's classification_report, discussing the $F_1$ metric and delving slightly deeper into the $F_{0.5}$ In the end, we discuss the classification_report for the confusion matrix we built on the Iris dataset. Let's import the needed libraries and set the matplotlib and seaborn settings.
