QUESTO: Interactive Objective Functions for Model Selection

Info about the Project

Visual analytics (VA) systems with semantic interaction help users craft machine learning (ML) based solutions in various domains such as bio-informatics, finance, sports, etc. However current semantic interaction based approaches are data and task-specific which might not generalize across different problem scenarios. In this project, we describe a novel technique of abstracting user intents and goals in the form of an interactive objective function which can guide any auto-ML based model optimizer (such as Hyperopt, Sigopt, etc.) to construct classification models catering to the expectation
