> Randomization can be a more effective techinique than a grid search in finding optimal hyperparameters since min/max points can fall between the grid lines and never be found. Randomisation is not so restricted although the probability of finding minima/maxima is dependent on the number of attempts.
> Alice Zheng has an accessible description on how this technique works at [https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/evaluating-machine-learning/9781492048756/ch04.html]
