Abstract: Techniques for estimating runtimes of one or more machine learning tasks are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can regard a system that can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components. The system can also comprise a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise an extraction component that can extract a parameter from a machine learning task. The parameter can define a performance characteristic of the machine learning task. Also, the computer executable components can comprise a model component that can generate a model based on the parameter. Further, the computer executable components can comprise an estimation component that can generate an estimated runtime of the machine learning task based on the model.
