Automated Machine Learning
Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) is a technology that automates the end-to-end process of applying machine learning to real-world problems. It handles tasks such as data preprocessing, feature engineering, model selection, hyperparameter tuning, and model evaluation, reducing the need for manual intervention by data scientists. This enables faster development and deployment of machine learning models, making ML more accessible to non-experts.
Developers should learn AutoML when they need to build machine learning models quickly without deep expertise in ML algorithms or when working on projects with tight deadlines. It is particularly useful for prototyping, automating repetitive ML workflows, and in industries like finance, healthcare, or marketing where rapid model iteration is crucial. AutoML tools help optimize model performance and save time on manual tuning.
