Resumo(s)

In recent years machine learning has made great strides in many application areas and an ever-growing number of disciplines rely on it. However, machine learning modelling process involves trying many machine learning algorithms with different parameter configurations which is considered insufficient, tedious, and time-consuming. The challenge has brought about the need for off-the-shelf solutions that allow a dataset to choose its best modelling pipeline including data preprocessing, model selection and hyperparameter optimization without or with very little human intervention in the process. Despite the availability of numerous AutoML systems that can automate the machine learning modeling process, there is still a need for a solution that can achieve the same results using a significantly smaller space, while improving efficiency. This thesis proposes an AutoML system named EasyML that uses meta-learning for model selection and particle swarm optimization for hyperparameter optimization. The research objectives include conducting a comprehensive literature review on State-of-the-Art techniques and existing AutoML systems, design, and development of EasyML, evaluating the system's performance on benchmark datasets, comparing its efficiency to other AutoML systems, and identifying its limitations and suggesting future research directions. The research methodology combines Design Science Research and CRISP-DM. EasyML outperforms existing solutions like SmartML and Auto-WEKA on all benchmark datasets. EasyML has the potential to contribute to the development of more efficient and effective AutoML systems, thereby meeting the increasing demand for data scientists with strong knowledge of various machine learning algorithms and techniques.
