LARGE-SCALE AUTOMATED HYPERPARAMETER TUNING

Systems and methods determine optimized hyperparameter values for one or more machine-learning models. A sample training data set from a larger corpus of training data is obtained. Initial hyperparameter values are then randomly selected. Using the sample training data set and the randomly chosen hyperparameter values, an initial set of performance metric values are obtained. Maximized hyperparameter values are then determined from the initial set of hyperparameter values based on the corresponding performance metric value. A larger corpus of training data is then evaluated using the maximized hyperparameter values and the corresponding machine-learning model, which yields another corresponding set of performance metric values. The maximized hyperparameter values and their corresponding set of performance metric values are then merged with the prior set of hyperparameter values. The foregoing operations are performed iteratively until it is determined that the hyperparameter values are converging to a particular value.
