Auto-Keras is an open source software library for automated machine learning (AutoML). It is developed by DATA Lab at Texas A&M University and community contributors. The ultimate goal of AutoML is to provide easily accessible deep learning tools to domain experts with limited data science or machine learning background. Auto-Keras provides functions to automatically search for architecture and hyperparameters of deep learning models.
To install the package, please use the pip installation as follows:
pip install autokeras
Note: currently, Auto-Keras is only compatible with: Python 3.6.
Here is a short example of using the package.
import autokeras as ak
clf = ak.ImageClassifier()
clf.fit(x_train, y_train)
results = clf.predict(x_test)
