AutoMLPipeline
Star History
AutoMLPipeline (AMLP) is a package that makes it trivial to create complex ML pipeline structures using simple expressions. It leverages on the built-in macro programming features of Julia to symbolically process, manipulate pipeline expressions, and makes it easy to discover optimal structures for machine learning regression and classification.
To illustrate, here is a pipeline expression
and evaluation of a typical machine learning
workflow that extracts numerical features (numf
)
for ica
(Independent Component Analysis)
and pca
(Principal Component Analysis)
transformations, respectively, concatenated with
the hot-bit encoding (ohe
) of categorical
features (catf
) of a given data for rf
(Random Forest) modeling:
model = (catf |> ohe) + (numf |> pca) + (numf |> ica) |> rf
fit!(model,Xtrain,Ytrain)
prediction = transform!(model,Xtest)
score(:accuracy,prediction,Ytest)
crossvalidate(model,X,Y,"balanced_accuracy_score")
Just take note that +
has higher priority than |>
so if you
are not sure, enclose the operations inside parentheses.
### these two expressions are the same
a |> b + c; a |> (b + c)
### these two expressions are the same
a + b |> c; (a + b) |> c

Motivations
The typical workflow in machine learning classification or prediction requires some or combination of the following preprocessing steps together with modeling:
- feature extraction (e.g. ica, pca, svd)
- feature transformation (e.g. normalization, scaling, ohe)
- feature selection (anova, correlation)
- modeling (rf, adaboost, xgboost, lm, svm, mlp)
Each step has several choices of functions to use together with their corresponding parameters. Optimizing the performance of the entire pipeline is a combinatorial search of the proper order and combination of preprocessing steps, optimization of their corresponding parameters, together with searching for the optimal model and its hyper-parameters.
Because of close dependencies among various steps, we can consider the entire process to be a pipeline optimization problem (POP). POP requires simultaneous optimization of pipeline structure and parameter adaptation of its elements. As a consequence, having an elegant way to express pipeline structure can help lessen the complexity in the management and analysis of the wide-array of choices of optimization routines.
The target of future work will be the implementations of different pipeline optimization algorithms ranging from evolutionary approaches, integer programming (discrete choices of POP elements), tree/graph search, and hyper-parameter search.
Package Features
- Symbolic pipeline API for easy expression and high-level description of complex pipeline structures and processing workflow
- Common API wrappers for ML libs including Scikitlearn, DecisionTree, etc
- Easily extensible architecture by overloading just two main interfaces: fit! and transform!
- Meta-ensembles that allow composition of ensembles of ensembles (recursively if needed) for robust prediction routines
- Categorical and numerical feature selectors for specialized preprocessing routines based on types

Below outlines some typical way to preprocess and model any dataset.
1. Load Data, Extract Input (X) and Target (Y)
# Make sure that the input feature is a dataframe and the target output is a 1-D vector.

X = profbdata[:,2:end]
Y = profbdata[:,1] |> Vector;
head(x)=first(x,5)
head(profbdata)

6. Use @pipelinex
instead of @pipeline
to print the corresponding function calls in 6
julia> @pipelinex (catf |> ohe) + (numf) |> vote
:(Pipeline(ComboPipeline(Pipeline(catf, ohe), numf), vote))
# another way is to use @macroexpand with @pipeline

11. Automatic Selection of Best Learner
You can use *
operation as a selector function which outputs the result of the best learner.
If we use the same pre-processing pipeline in 10, we expect that the average performance of
best learner which is lsvc
will be around 73.0.

12. Learners as Transformers
It is also possible to use learners in the middle of expression to serve as transformers and their outputs become inputs to the final learner as illustrated below.
expr = (
((numf |> rb)+(catf |> ohe) |> gb) +
((numf |> rb)+(catf |> ohe) |> rf)
) |> ohe |> ada;
crossvalidate(expr,X,Y,"accuracy_score")
fold: 1, 0.6567164179104478
fold: 2, 0.5522388059701493
fold: 3, 0.7205882352941176
fold: 4, 0.7313432835820896
fold: 5, 0.6567164179104478
fold: 6, 0.6119402985074627
fold: 7, 0.6119402985074627
fold: 8, 0.6470588235294118
fold: 9, 0.6716417910447762
fold: 10, 0.6119402985074627
errors: 0
(mean = 0.6472124670763829, std = 0.053739947087648336, folds = 10, errors = 0)
One can even include selector function as part of transformer preprocessing routine:
pjrf = disc |> ((catf |> ohe) + (numf |> std)) |>
((jrf * ada ) + (sgd * tree * lsvc)) |> ohe |> ada
crossvalidate(pjrf,X,Y,"accuracy_score")
fold: 1, 0.7164179104477612
fold: 2, 0.7164179104477612
fold: 3, 0.7941176470588235
fold: 4, 0.7761194029850746
fold: 5, 0.6268656716417911
fold: 6, 0.6716417910447762
fold: 7, 0.7611940298507462
fold: 8, 0.7352941176470589
fold: 9, 0.7761194029850746
fold: 10, 0.6865671641791045
errors: 0
(mean = 0.7260755048287972, std = 0.0532393731318768, folds = 10, errors = 0)
Note: The ohe
is necessary in both examples
because the outputs of the learners and selector function are categorical
values that need to be hot-bit encoded before feeding to the final ada
learner.
13. Tree Visualization of the Pipeline Structure
You can visualize the pipeline by using AbstractTrees Julia package.
# package installation
using Pkg
Pkg.update()
Pkg.add("AbstractTrees")
# load the packages
using AbstractTrees
using AutoMLPipeline
expr = @pipelinex (catf |> ohe) + (numf |> pca) + (numf |> ica) |> rf
:(Pipeline(ComboPipeline(Pipeline(catf, ohe), Pipeline(numf, pca), Pipeline(numf, ica)), rf))
print_tree(stdout, expr)
:(Pipeline(ComboPipeline(Pipeline(catf, ohe), Pipeline(numf, pca), Pipeline(numf, ica)), rf))
├─ :Pipeline
├─ :(ComboPipeline(Pipeline(catf, ohe), Pipeline(numf, pca), Pipeline(numf, ica)))
│ ├─ :ComboPipeline
│ ├─ :(Pipeline(catf, ohe))
│ │ ├─ :Pipeline
│ │ ├─ :catf
│ │ └─ :ohe
│ ├─ :(Pipeline(numf, pca))
│ │ ├─ :Pipeline
│ │ ├─ :numf
│ │ └─ :pca
│ └─ :(Pipeline(numf, ica))
│ ├─ :Pipeline
│ ├─ :numf
│ └─ :ica
└─ :rf
Extending AutoMLPipeline
If you want to add your own filter or transformer or learner,
take note that filters and transformers process the
input features but ignores the output argument. On the other hand,
learners process both their input and output arguments during fit!
while transform!
expects one input argument in all cases.
First step is to import the abstract types and define your own mutable structure
as subtype of either Learner or Transformer. Next is to import the fit!
and
transform!
functions so that you can overload them. Also, you must
load the DataFrames package because it is the main format for data processing.
Finally, implement your own fit
and transform
and export them.
using DataFrames
using AutoMLPipeline.AbsTypes
# import functions for overloading
import AutoMLPipeline.AbsTypes: fit!, transform!
# export the new definitions for dynamic dispatch
export fit!, transform!, MyFilter
# define your filter structure
mutable struct MyFilter <: Transformer
name::String
model::Dict
args::Dict
function MyFilter(args::Dict())
....
end
end
# define your fit! function.
function fit!(fl::MyFilter, inputfeatures::DataFrame, target::Vector=Vector())
....
end
#define your transform! function
function transform!(fl::MyFilter, inputfeatures::DataFrame)::DataFrame
....
end
Note that the main format to exchange data is dataframe which requires transform!
output to return a dataframe. The features as input for fit! and transform! shall
be in dataframe format too. This is necessary so that
the pipeline passes the dataframe format consistently to
its corresponding filters/transformers/learners. Once you have
this transformer, you can use it as part of the pipeline
together with the other learners and transformers.
