Abstract

We present a novel approach to meta-learning, which is not just a ranking of methods, not just a strategy for building model committees, but an algorithm performing a search similar to what human experts do when analyzing data, solving full scope of data mining problems. The search through the space of possible solutions is driven by special mechanisms of machine generators based on meta-schemes. The approach facilitates using human experts knowledge to restrict the search space and gaining meta-knowledge in an automated manner. The conclusions help in further search and may also be passed to other meta-learners. All the functionality is included in our new general architecture for data mining, especially eligible for meta-learning tasks.
