KerasTuner
KerasTuner is an easy-to-use, scalable hyperparameter optimization framework
that solves the pain points of hyperparameter search. Easily configure your
search space with a define-by-run syntax, then leverage one of the available
search algorithms to find the best hyperparameter values for your models.
KerasTuner comes with Bayesian Optimization, Hyperband, and Random Search algorithms
built-in, and is also designed to be easy for researchers to extend in order to
experiment with new search algorithms.

Installation
KerasTuner requires Python 3.8+ and TensorFlow 2.0+.
Install the latest release:
pip install keras-tuner

GitHub repository.
Quick introduction
Import KerasTuner and TensorFlow:
import keras_tuner
from tensorflow import keras
Write a function that creates and returns a Keras model.
Use the hp
argument to define the hyperparameters during model creation.
def build_model(hp):
model = keras.Sequential()
model.add(keras.layers.Dense(
hp.Choice('units', [8, 16, 32]),
activation='relu'))
model.add(keras.layers.Dense(1, activation='relu'))
model.compile(loss='mse')
return model
Initialize a tuner (here, RandomSearch
).
We use objective
to specify the objective to select the best models,
and we use max_trials
to specify the number of different models to try.
tuner = keras_tuner.RandomSearch(
build_model,
objective='val_loss',
max_trials=5)
Start the search and get the best model:
tuner.search(x_train, y_train, epochs=5, validation_data=(x_val, y_val))
best_model = tuner.get_best_models()[0]
