Abstract

Deep learning models are immensely used for numerous problems in different domains and have proven to be superior over feature-based machine learning techniques. However, the success of any deep learning model is dependent on several factors like the tuning of appropriate different hyper-parameters, neural network architectures, optimizers, etc. To learn neural network weights, gradient-based optimizers such as stochastic gradient descent, min-batch gradient descent and the Adam optimizer are widely used. However, the architecture of neural networks and hyper-parameters has to be tuned manually for better performance of the model. Evolutionary deep learning models are gaining attention in recent years to overcome the manual tuning of hyper-parameters and the network architecture. This paper presents a design perspective of recently developed Genetic Algorithm-driven evolutionary deep learning models along with the inherent challenges.
