Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining update rules for training neural networks. One of the methods includes generating, using a controller neural network, a batch of output sequences, each output sequence in the batch defining a respective update rule; for each output sequence in the batch: training a respective instance of a child neural network using the update rule defined by the output sequence; evaluating a performance of the trained instance of the child neural network on the particular neural network task to determine a performance metric for the trained instance of the child neural network on the particular neural network task; and using the performance metrics for the trained instances of the child neural network to adjust the current values of the controller parameters of the controller neural network.
