Consider a scenario where you are tasked with tuning hyperparameters for a machine learning model using random search. Describe in detail the steps you would take to implement this method, including how you would select the parameter space, the number of iterations, and how you would evaluate the performance of each set of hyperparameters. Additionally, explain the potential advantages and disadvantages of using random search over grid search.

Simulated

Random search is less efficient than grid search and does not guarantee the best hyperparameters.

4.5%

Random search can be more efficient than grid search, especially when some hyperparameters are more important than others, but it requires careful selection of the parameter space and number of iterations.

89.4%

Random search is always superior to grid search and should be the default choice for hyperparameter tuning.

1.5%

Random search and grid search are equally effective, and the choice between them is arbitrary.
