Title:LEMUR 2: Unlocking Neural Network Diversity for AI

Abstract:Existing NAS benchmarks (e.g., NAS-Bench, NATS-Bench) cover only narrow, task-specific regions of the architectural design space and lack cross-domain or deployment-aware evaluation. LEMUR 2 introduces a large-scale, extensible framework unifying generative, evaluative, and deployment pipelines to unlock neural-network diversity. It comprises over 14,000 distinct architectures and more than 750,000 structured training records documenting model performance, hyperparameters, and task outcomes. These models were produced through AST-based code mutation, genetic and reinforcement-learning evolution, generation of fractal architectures, and synthesis guided by a Large Language Model (LLM). This includes deep models generated with the retrieval-augmented system NN-RAG, which derived and used architectural motifs from over 900 PyTorch modules extracted from public repositories. LEMUR 2 further employs NN-VR and NN-Lite pipelines for automated deployment and latency benchmarking on heterogeneous mobile and Unity-based VR platforms, providing real-device performance metadata. It spans multimodal tasks, image captioning, text-to-image synthesis, and language modeling, supporting cross-domain analysis of architectural transferability. By linking diverse architectures, tasks, and deployment data, LEMUR 2 provides the data foundation for LLM fine-tuning and coupling diverse architectural origins with large-scale, cross-platform empirical validation. This dataset defines a new basis for reproducible and data-driven AI design, advancing the emerging paradigm of LLM-driven AutoML and architectural generalization across modalities and hardware.
