A Configuration-First Framework for Reproducible, Low-Code Machine Learning: a Localization Use Case

The paper introduces a configuration-first framework called LOCALIZE that streamlines machine learning experimentation by declaring experiments in human-readable configuration files and orchestrating isolated processes for each workflow stage. It version‑controls code, data, configurations, and artifacts, enabling reproducible runs. A qualitative comparison with five platforms and quantitative tests against Jupyter and Kedro show that LOCALIZE reduces code edits while keeping time and memory usage comparable, and scales sublinearly with dataset size.
