Overview of this book

The automation of machine learning tasks allows developers more time to focus on the usability and reactivity of the software powered by machine learning models. TPOT is a Python automated machine learning tool used for optimizing machine learning pipelines using genetic programming. Automating machine learning with TPOT enables individuals and companies to develop production-ready machine learning models cheaper and faster than with traditional methods. With this practical guide to AutoML, developers working with Python on machine learning tasks will be able to put their knowledge to work and become productive quickly. You'll adopt a hands-on approach to learning the implementation of AutoML and associated methodologies. Complete with step-by-step explanations of essential concepts, practical examples, and self-assessment questions, this book will show you how to build automated classification and regression models and compare their performance to custom-built models. As you advance, you'll also develop state-of-the-art models using only a couple of lines of code and see how those models outperform all of your previous models on the same datasets. By the end of this book, you'll have gained the confidence to implement AutoML techniques in your organization on a production level.

Introducing TPOT

TPOT, or Tree-based Pipeline Optimization Tool, is an open source library for performing machine learning in an automated fashion with the Python programming language. Below the surface, it uses the well-known scikit-learn machine learning library to perform data preparation, transformation, and machine learning. It also uses GP procedures to discover the best-performing pipeline for a given dataset. The concept of GP is covered in later sections.

As a rule of thumb, you should use TPOT every time you need an automated machine learning pipeline. Data science is a broad field, and libraries such as TPOT enable you to spend much more time on data gathering and cleaning, as everything else is done automatically.

The following figure shows what a typical machine learning pipeline looks like:
