Machine Learning
Welcome! You can use this site to tell the Azure Machine Learning team what features you would like to see.
Azure Machine Learning enables developers and data scientists to build advanced analytic web services in minutes and hours, eliminating the heavy lifting associated with deploying machine learning in modern data driven applications.

"compare to" in visualization
I am inrolled in the online course "essentials of data science" and in many of the videos we can go to a model, visualize it and show scatterplots/diagrams by chosing "compare to". When I try this myself with my own models there are, in some of the cases, no "compare to". It is a really useful function when working with feature engineering, why is it only available in some cases? How can I make it available all the time?

Make azure ML studio scalable
For large datasets and complex algorithms it either takes very long to train the model or training fails because of memory lack. Please make azure ml studio scalable. Let users choose cores and memory before running an experiment

Visualization graphs - Exportable
I am trying to use the 'compare' feature in the visualization window, where it shows you graphs that compare two columns, but it is hard to see. The window isn't resizable and the axis-labels are too small/cut short so I can't actually see what it is I am analyzing. It would be perfect if you could export this graph -- even if to a JPEG or PDF, so you could visualize it better. Thank you!

Add email notifications when a running instance completes
If you've got a big dataset, often the first few steps (e.g. Reader getting several Gb of data from Azure BLOB storage, or a split/fold/partition/etc on a big dataset) can take a disproportionately long time. And that's fine, but I don't necessarily want to sit & watch.
If you added an "email me when step X completes" so I can go make dinner while the import runs, I would be a happy, happy boy.

Thanks. We will look into it.

Additional input datasets for R / Python scripts
In order to have an R or Python script use more than two datasets I have to create many modules and do the combinations incrementally. It would make the UI much easier to work with if I could connect an indeterminate number of datasets as inputs.
A potentially acceptable solution would be to include the ability to create a dataset of datasets prior to using as an input to a script module.

Integrate the Nupic HTM CLA
Integrate the Nupic HTM CLA with the Machine Learning platform. I'm not seeing an obvious way to utilise both Nupic (which I really like) and Azure ML which looks excellent.

Nupic is a deep learning algorithm that Numenta is developing and promoting. The closest thing that is currently part of AML is building a multi-layered, neural network, but there are lots of fundamental differences between NuPIC and vanilla neural networks. It will take a substantial amount of engineering for it to be incorporated, and we will evaluate if it will fit in the backlog.

Re-open feature request "Deployment of ML experiments programmatically"
This feature request is marked as complete https://feedback.azure.com/forums/257792-machine-learning/suggestions/7575534-deployment-of-ml-experiments-programmatically, but the library is still far from being complete.
In https://github.com/hning86/azuremlps#import-amlexperimentgraph, we see the following note:
"Please note that the exported JSON file only contains references to the exact instance and version of the assets (modules, trained models, datasets, etc.). The assets themselves are NOT serialized into the JSON file. As a consequence, when you import it back into the Workspace, unless you are importing it back into the same Workspace, or unless your graph only contains global assets such as built-in modules, you will not be able to create…

Add feature selection methods using classification/regression algorithms
Just for an example, I want to select features with classification/regression algorithms such as Multi Layer Perceptron, Linear regression, Decision tree and so on, selecting the best feature subset by performing forward/backward Best-first search.
This is can be done in WEKA.

Allowing sorting of values from Visualize screen
Values should be sortable from the Visualize screen by clicking on the column and sorting from ascending to descending or vice versa.

Allow for data split into training, validation and testing using only one split
Allow for data split into training, validation and testing using only one split.
Coming from a SAS background I find the split module to be very clunky and the use two split modules in order to split the data into 3 sets (training, validation, testing) to be very counter-productive.

Standardize canvas navigation
Management Studio diagrams:
Scroll = Scroll
Ctrl + Scroll = ZoomSSIS canvas, SSAS diagrams in Visual Studio:
Scroll = Scroll
Ctrl + Scroll = ZoomML Studio:
Scroll = ZoomYes, ML Studio is browser-based but navigating across the canvas could be similar to previous products.
I don't have the numbers to prove the following statement - but I think that vertical scrolling is used more often than zooming.19 votesunder review ·Adminmluservoice

Get serious with Datasets! Beat Kaggle
If you are serious about ML Studio, you'd rather include hundreds and hundreds sample datasets. We should see 2-3 samples for each algorithm. Two sets for each dataset needed: 1. real, dirty data 2. the same but clean data. So user could concentrate on cleaning or on the algorithm side of the problem. Datasets should be in categories and with tags... you have fantazy, right?
Samples for different user categories: students, scientists, developers, kids.
Samples for different tasks: study, competitions, science (Yes! Please, include datasets for *real* problems in science)
We should beat Kaggle in this aspect (why not ImageNet?)17 votes -
Multiple output nodes for the regression neural network model
I like to be able to create a regression neural network model that has multiple output nodes. This helps to create an efficient neural net that model multiple related outputs which are dependent on the same group of inputs.
