Automated machine learning (AutoML) is the process of automating the process of applying machine learning to real-world problems. AutoML covers the complete pipeline from the raw dataset to the deployable machine learning model. AutoML was proposed as an artificial intelligence-based solution to the ever-growing challenge of applying machine learning.[1][2] The high degree of automation in AutoML allows non-experts to make use of machine learning models and techniques without requiring to become an expert in this field first.

自动机器学习 Automated machine learning,AutoML是指实现机器学习自动应用于实际问题的过程。自动机器学习涵盖了从原始数据集到可部署机器学习模型的整个流程。作为一种基于人工智能的解决方案,自动机器学习被用于应对机器学习方面日益增长的挑战[1][2]。自动机器学习中高度的自动化允许非专业人员在无需成为该领域专家的前提下使用机器学习的模型和技术。


Automating the process of applying machine learning end-to-end additionally offers the advantages of producing simpler solutions, faster creation of those solutions, and models that often outperform hand-designed models.

在机器学习的应用中,将端到端的过程自动化可以产生更多优势:生成更简单的解决方案、更快地创建这些解决方案,并且经常能设计出优于人工设计的模型。


Comparison to the standard machine learning approach

与常规机器学习方法的比较

In a typical machine learning application, practitioners have a dataset consisting of input data points to train on. The raw data itself may not be in a form such that all algorithms may be applicable to it out of the box. An expert may have to apply appropriate data pre-processing, feature engineering, feature extraction, and feature selection methods that make the dataset amenable for machine learning. Following those preprocessing steps, practitioners must then perform algorithm selection and hyperparameter optimization to maximize the predictive performance of their machine learning model. Clearly all of those steps induce their own challenges, accumulating to a significant hurdle to get started with machine learning.

在一个典型的机器学习应用程序中,程序的使用者会使用一个由输入数据点组成的数据集去进行训练。原始数据本身的形式可能并不适用于所有算法。专家可能需要使用相应的数据预处理 data pre-processing 特征工程 feature engineering特征提取 feature extraction特征选择方法 feature selectin methods等,使数据集适合机器学习。按照这些预处理步骤,程序的使用者必须执行算法选择 algorithm 超参数优化 hyperparameter optimization,以最大限度地提升他们的机器学习模型的预测性能。显然,这些步骤都为它们自身带来了挑战。这些挑战一旦累积到一定程度,就会成为机器学习的重大障碍。


A downside are the additional parameters of AutoML tools, which may need some expertise to be set themselves. Although those hyperparameters exist, AutoML simplifies the application of machine learning for non-experts dramatically.

自动机器学习这一工具的不足之处就是对附加参数的依赖。这些参数可能需要一些专业知识才能得出。尽管有这些超参数存在,自动机器学习依旧极大地简化了非专业性机器学习的应用。


Targets of automation

自动机器学习的目标

Automated machine learning can target various stages of the machine learning process.[2] Essentially the targets can be grouped into the fields data preparation, feature engineering, model selection, selection of evaluation metrics, and hyperparameter optimization.
