Abstract
A computing system for producing an architecture of a pyramid layer is disclosed. The computing system can include a controller model configured to generate new architectures for a pyramid layer that receives a plurality of input feature representations output by a backbone model and, in response, outputs a plurality of output feature representations. The plurality of input feature representations can have a plurality of different input resolutions, and the plurality of output feature representations can have a plurality of different output resolutions. The computing system can be configured to perform a plurality of iterations. For each iteration, the computing system can receive a new pyramid layer architecture as an output of the controller model and evaluate one or more performance characteristics of a machine-learned pyramidal feature model that includes the backbone model and one or more pyramid layers that have the new pyramid layer architecture.
