Towards Automated Deep Learning: Analysis of the AutoDL Challenge Series 2019
Abstract
We present the design and results of recent competitions in Automated Deep Learning (AutoDL). In the AutoDL challenge series 2019, we organized 5 machine learning challenges: AutoCV, AutoCV2, AutoNLP, AutoSpeech and AutoDL, covering computer vision, natural language processing, and speech recognition domains.
Key contributions include a benchmark suite of baseline AutoML solutions and a repository of around 100 datasets for meta-learning research. Results demonstrate that winning solutions generalize to new unseen datasets, supporting development toward universal AutoML approaches.
