Methods, computer program products and/or systems are provided that perform the following operations: obtaining a performance matrix representing accuracies obtained by executing a plurality of pipelines on a plurality of training data sets, wherein a pipeline comprises a series of operations performed on a data set; selecting a defined number of top pipelines as potential pipelines for a testing data set based, at least in part, on a similarity between the testing data set and each of the plurality of training data sets represented in the performance matrix; storing results from executing each of the potential pipelines as a new data set; determining a pipeline accuracy for each of the potential pipelines when executed against the testing data set; and providing a recommended pipeline for use with the testing data set based, at least in part, on the pipeline accuracy for each potential pipeline.
