Asynchronous Hyperparameter Search with Spark on Hopsworks and Maggy
1 like561 views
The document discusses the integration of asynchronous hyperparameter optimization with Apache Spark, highlighting the inefficiencies of bulk-synchronous models for search tasks. It introduces Maggy, a framework for optimizing hyperparameters asynchronously and improving resource management during model training. Additionally, it covers the Hopsworks platform's capabilities, such as its feature store and support for a variety of machine learning pipelines.
