Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have become a standard approach for modeling genomic sequences. CNNs can be effectively built by Neural Architecture Search (NAS) by trading computing power for accurate neural architectures. Yet, the consumption of immense computing power is a major practical, financial, and environmental issue for deep learning. Here, we present a novel NAS framework, AMBIENT, that generates highly accurate CNN architectures for biological sequences of diverse functions, while substantially reducing the computing cost of conventional NAS.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
