Manual creation of machine learning ensembles is a hard and tedious task which requires an expert and a lot of time. In this work we describe a new version of the GP-ML algorithm which uses genetic programming to create machine learning workows (combinations of preprocessing, classification, and ensembles) automatically, using strongly typed genetic programming and asynchronous evolution. The current version improves the way in which the individuals in the genetic programming are created and allows for much larger workows. Additionally, we added new machine learning methods. The algorithm is compared to the grid search of the base methods and to its previous versions on a set of problems from the UCI machine learning repository.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
