  • Patent number: 11348032
    Abstract: Machine-trained models are generated based on a model description that defines parameters for training the model and that can inherit parameters from parent model descriptions. When a parent model description changes, the changes made to the parent model description are applied to the model description automatically. When a target model is re-generated, a description of the set of parameters for generating the target model is received. The parent model is then identified from the received description, and a description of the set of parameters for generating the parent model is retrieved. Using the description for the target model and the parent model, a pipeline for generating the target model is generated. Finally, the pipeline is executed to generate the target model.
