Title: Green AutoML: A paradigm shift towards a more mindful resource consumption

Abstract:
AutoML is a well-established research field worked by international researchers that even has its own dedicated conference since this year. The tedious work machine learning scientists are doing in their day-to-day life inspired researchers to work on the automation of different aspects, aiming to get the best performing model. For a long time, this challenge has been tackled with immense computational power resulting in an immense environmental footprint. Due to the ongoing climate change, the consequences of emitted CO2e are becoming more and more perceptible. As a consequence, a shift in the AutoML community towards the consideration of its environmental footprint is of extreme importance and inevitable. In this talk, options for quantifying such a footprint are summarized, as well as existing work as strategies on how to design and benchmark AutoML tools with their footprint in mind are revisited. Furthermore, different aspects of how to be transparent about the environmental footprint and what kind of research incentives could direct the community into a more sustainable AutoML research direction are elaborated on.

External participants (i.e. neither students nor employees of LUH) are kindly requested to send a short, informal email to office@ai.uni-hannover.de to register.
