Fast AutoML with FLAML + Ray Tune - KDnuggets

FLAML is a lightweight Python library from Microsoft Research that finds accurate machine learning models in an efficient and economical way using cutting edge algorithms designed to be resource-efficient and easily parallelizable. FLAML can also utilize Ray Tune for distributed hyperparameter tuning to scale up these AutoML methods across a cluster. AutoML is known to be a resource and time consuming operation as it involves trials and errors to find a hyperparameter configuration with good performance. Since the space of possible configuration values is often very large, there is a need for an economical AutoML method that can more effectively search them. To address both of these factors, Microsoft Researchers have developed FLAML (Fast Lightweight AutoML).
