ONNX-Net introduces a universal representation for neural architectures using natural language descriptions, enabling instant performance prediction across diverse search spaces. The authors present ONNX-Bench, a benchmark of over 600k architecture–accuracy pairs compiled from open‑source NAS‑bench networks in ONNX format. Experiments demonstrate strong zero‑shot predictive performance with minimal pretraining, overcoming the limitations of cell‑based, graph‑encoded approaches.

AutoBCI is an agentic framework that uses a Designer Agent and a Forecaster Agent to discover and select EEG decoding architectures across diverse tasks such as emotion recognition, motor imagery, and sleep staging. The Designer Agent performs Pool‑Guided Architecture Discovery (PGAD) to generate and refine models, while the Forecaster Agent uses Performance Estimation from Early Knowledge (PEEK) to predict full‑budget validation performance from early learning curves. In experiments on 14 EEG datasets, AutoBCI with Claude Opus 5.5 achieved a 64.16% average test balanced accuracy, slightly surpassing the best baseline, and PEEK reduced prediction error by 38.1% compared to the best-observed-score baseline.

Ensembles are a standard way to improve the performance and robustness of deep neural networks, but their effectiveness crucially depends on both the quality and the diversity of individual models. Most neural architecture search (NAS) methods are computationally expensive.
