To facilitate this process, we propose and implement an easy-to-use Python toolkit, combo, to aggregate models and scores under various scenarios, including classification, clustering, and anomaly detection. In a nutshell, combo provides a unified and consistent way to combine both raw and pretrained models from popular machine learning libraries, e.g., scikit-learn, XGBoost, and LightGBM. With accessibility and robustness in mind, combo is designed with detailed documentation, interactive examples, continuous integration, code coverage, and maintainability check; it can be installed easily through Python Package Index (PyPI) or {https://github.com/yzhao062/combo}.</p>}, number={09}, journal={Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence}, author={Zhao, Yue and Wang, Xuejian and Cheng, Cheng and Ding, Xueying}, year={2020}, month={Apr.}, pages={13648-13649} }
