In various example embodiments, a comparative modeling system is configured to receive selections of a data set, a transform scheme, and one or more machine-learning algorithms. In response to a selection of the one or more machine-learning algorithms, the comparative modeling system determines parameters within the one or more machine-learning algorithms. The comparative modeling system generates a plurality of models for the one or more machine-learning algorithms, determines comparison metric values for the plurality of models, and causes presentation of the comparison metric values for the plurality of models.
