Decision brief

Hyperband optimizes hyperparameters quickly with an efficient bandit-based approach, supporting several models from scikit-learn and polylearn.

Good fit when

  • Use Hyperband when you need fast optimization of hyperparameters for classifiers such as gradient boosting or regressors like factorization machines from polylearn.
  • Optimize model performance rapidly using the provided meta-classifier/regressor definitions that attempt many models in one run, which can save time on manual search space construction.

Avoid when

  • Avoid Hyperband if you require custom data formats that differ significantly from scikit-learn conventions, as this will necessitate extensive customization of the load_data modules.
  • Do not use Hyperband when the models you need for hyperparameter tuning are not among the eight pre-supported models; additional support is required outside what comes built-in.
