Hyper-Parameter Optimization
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* [Improvement] TPE and random tuners will not generate duplicate hyperparameters anymore.
* [Improvement] Most Python APIs now have type annotations.

Neural Architecture Search
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Jointly search for architecture and hyper-parameters: ValueChoice in evaluator. (`doc <https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/v2.7/reference/nas/search_space.html#valuechoice>`__)
* Support composition (transformation) of one or several value choices. (`doc <https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/v2.7/reference/nas/search_space.html#valuechoice>`__)
* Enhanced Cell API (``merge_op``, preprocessor, postprocessor). (`doc <https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/v2.7/reference/nas/search_space.html#cell>`__)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Pruning V2 is promoted as default pruning framework, old pruning is legacy and keeps for a few releases.(`doc <https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/v2.7/reference/compression/pruner.html>`__)
* A new pruning mode ``balance`` is supported in ``LevelPruner``.(`doc <https://nni.readthedocs.io/en/v2.7/reference/compression/pruner.html#level-pruner>`__)

Experiment
^^^^^^^^^^

* [Improvement] Experiment.run() no longer stops web portal on return.

Notable Bugfixes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Fixed: experiment list could not open experiment with prefix.
* Fixed: serializer for complex kinds of arguments.
* Fixed: some typos in code. (thanks @a1trl9 @mrshu)
