Abstract

A method comprises receiving a new data set; identifying at least one prior data set of a plurality of prior data sets that matches the new data set; generating a natural language data science problem statement for the new data set based on information associated with the at least prior one data set that matches the new data set; outputting the generated natural language data science problem statement for user verification; and in response to receiving user input verifying the natural language generated data science problem statement, generating one or more AutoAI configuration settings for the new data set based on one or more AutoAI configuration settings associated with the at least one prior data set that matches the new data set.
