Its Darwin machine learning platform is designed to automate the building and deployment of models. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to SparkCognition, the tool works to provide &#8220;a productive environment that empowers data scientists with a broad spectrum of experience to quickly prototype and develop, tune and implement machine learning applications in less time.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using its automated model building capabilities, the system works to generate models using both supervised and unsupervised learning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In it&#8217;s new report, SparkCognition tests the efficacy of its Darwin platform against three open-source products: AutoSklearn, H2O, and Random Forest, while using default parameters with each platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>&#8220;Darwin greatly expedites the process of building models by cleansing the data, extracting features, and optimizing models, meaning companies can put these models to use, scale easily, and increase the speed to ROI.&#8221; \u2014 SparkCognition<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Results were compared on six different datasets comprising each type of supervised learning problem, including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Electric Devices Classification<\/li><li>UCI EEG Eye State Classification<\/li><li>UCI Ozone Classification<\/li><li>MNIST Digit Classification<\/li><li>Boston Housing Regression<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Exploring the methodology of the test further, for time-series datasets, 80% of the data was used for training, and 20% was used for testing. Because not all of the comparison tools contained data cleaning methods, all categorical columns were tagged prior to model creation and in some cases encoded using one-hot encoding (Auto Sklearn only), the company explained. Each model was run for a maximum of 20 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/insidebigdata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/shutterstock_675107101.jpg\" alt=\"Darwin machine learning\" class=\"wp-image-22645\" width=\"283\" height=\"189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/insidebigdata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/shutterstock_675107101.jpg 500w, https:\/\/insidebigdata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/shutterstock_675107101-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/insidebigdata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/shutterstock_675107101-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><figcaption><em>As machine learning technology becomes more widely available on an enterprise scale, differentiating and studying which platform can be best for your business can be difficult.
