Solving machine learning with machine learning: Exploiting Very Large-Scale Neighbourhood Search for synthesizing machine learning pipelines

This paper presents a comparative study of multiple algorithms that can be used to automatically search for high-performing pipelines on machine learning problems. These algorithms, namely Very Large-Scale Neighbourhood search (VLSN), Breadth-first search, Metropolis-Hastings, Monte-Carlo tree search (MCTS), enumerative A* search, and Genetic...
