Minimizing memory and processor consumption in creating machine learning models

The system presented here can create a new machine learning model by improving and combining existing machine learning models in a modular way. By combining existing machine learning models, the system can avoid the step of training a new machine model. Further, by combining existing machine models in a modular way, the system can selectively train only a module, i.e. a part, of the new machine learning model. Using the disclosed system, the expensive steps of gathering 8 TB of data and using the data to train the new machine learning model over 16,000 processors for three days can be entirely avoided, or can be reduced by a half, a third, etc. depending on the size of the module requiring training.
