Hyperparameters for computer vision tasks in automated machine learning (v1)

  • Artikkel

APPLIES TO: Python SDK azureml v1

Learn which hyperparameters are available specifically for computer vision tasks in automated ML experiments.

With support for computer vision tasks, you can control the model algorithm and sweep hyperparameters. These model algorithms and hyperparameters are passed in as the parameter space for the sweep. While many of the hyperparameters exposed are model-agnostic, there are instances where hyperparameters are model-specific or task-specific.
