Abstract
The increasing application of machine learning techniques to different disciplines has driven the research in the field towards the creation of algorithms able to construct the best model with the optimal hyperparameter configuration for a particular problem, without the need of user’s expert knowledge. This is well-known as the Combined Algorithms Selection and Hyperparameter Optimization problem.
In this work, we develop the open-source tool RADSSo in order to solve a multi-scenario of combined algorithms selection and hyperparameter optimization in which only one datastore is available containing many different machine learning problems. Then, several models need to be computed, at the same time, in an automated way. The tool is deployed in a modular form that allows to modify it and to customize the configuration files to adapt the tool to any context.
The underlying model is a mathematical formula that scores each machine learning model providing the best one for each subsample of the datastore. This score is based on the suitability of the model, different metrics from the confusion matrix and the capability of the generalization by the learning curves. In addition, RADSSo provides intuitively reports with all the essential information.
