TopGit writes full reviews for the most-starred, most-requested repositories. This page is a snapshot until then — see the READ ME tab for the original README in full.
TransmogrifAI (pronounced trăns-mŏgˈrə-fī) is an AutoML library written in Scala that runs on top of Apache Spark. It was developed with a focus on accelerating machine learning developer productivity through machine learning automation, and an API that enforces compile-time type-safety, modularity, and reuse.
Through automation, it achieves accuracies close to hand-tuned models with almost 100x reduction in time.
Use TransmogrifAI if you need a machine learning library to:
Build production ready machine learning applications in hours, not months
Build machine learning models without getting a Ph.D. in machine learning

Predicting Titanic Survivors with TransmogrifAI
The Titanic dataset is an often-cited dataset in the machine learning community. The goal is to build a machine learnt model that will predict survivors from the Titanic passenger manifest. Here is how you would build the model using TransmogrifAI:
import com.salesforce.op._
import com.salesforce.op.readers._
import com.salesforce.op.features._
import com.salesforce.op.features.types._
import com.salesforce.op.stages.impl.classification._
import org.apache.spark.SparkConf
import org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession
implicit val spark = SparkSession.builder.config(new SparkConf()).getOrCreate()
import spark.implicits._
// Read Titanic data as a DataFrame
val passengersData = DataReaders.Simple.csvCase[Passenger](path = pathToData).readDataset().toDF()
// Extract response and predictor Features
val (survived, predictors) = FeatureBuilder.fromDataFrame[RealNN](passengersData, response = "survived")
// Automated feature engineering
val featureVector = predictors.transmogrify()
// Automated feature validation and selection
val checkedFeatures = survived.sanityCheck(featureVector, removeBadFeatures = true)
// Automated model selection
val pred = BinaryClassificationModelSelector().setInput(survived, checkedFeatures).getOutput()
// Setting up a TransmogrifAI workflow and training the model
val model = new OpWorkflow().setInputDataset(passengersData).setResultFeatures(pred).train()
println("Model summary:\n" + model.summaryPretty())
