Evaluation of the computational efficiency (Search Cost in GPU-days) of Neural Architecture Search algorithms when applied to the standard ImageNet training and validation sets combined.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Neural Architecture Search |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | ImageNet (train val) |
| Metric | Search Cost (GPU-days) |
| Unit | TIME |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 6 of 6 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Search Cost (GPU-days)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/neural-architecture-search-on-imagenet-train-val.md?metric=Search%20Cost%20(GPU-days)>): Lower is better; unit: TIME.
