  text: OpenML is an online machine learning platform where researchers can easily
    share data, machine learning tasks and experiments as well as organize them online
    to work and collaborate more efficiently. In this paper, we present an R package
    to interface with the OpenML platform and illustrate its usage in combination
    with the machine learning R package mlr (Bischl et al. J Mach Learn Res 17(170):1—5,
    2016). We show how the OpenML package allows R users to easily search, download
    and upload data sets and machine learning tasks. Furthermore, we also show how
    to upload results of experiments, share them with others and download results
    from other users. Beyond ensuring reproducibility of results, the OpenML platform
    automates much of the drudge work, speeds up research, facilitates collaboration
    and increases the users’ visibility online.
