HELIX: Accelerating Human-in-the-loop Machine Learning
Summary: HELIX treats ML development as iterative workflow optimization rather than one-shot execution. Its declarative system combines cross-iteration program analysis with selective result materialization and DAG/version visualization, yielding up to 10× lower cumulative runtime.
