Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining, for each of one or more categorical features, a respective vocabulary of categorical feature values of the categorical feature that should be active during processing of inputs by a machine learning model. In one aspect, a method comprises: generating a batch of output sequences, each output sequence in the batch specifying, for each of the categorical features, a respective vocabulary of categorical feature values of the categorical feature that should be active; for each output sequence in the batch, determining a performance metric of the machine learning model on a machine learning task after the machine learning model has been trained to perform the machine learning task with only the respective vocabulary of categorical feature values of each categorical feature specified by the output sequence being active.
