The purpose of this paper is to introduce a practical framework of using proxy data in automatic hyperparameter
optimization for 3D multi-organ segmentation. The automated segmentation of abdominal organs from CT
volumes is a main task in the medical image analysis field. Much research has been investigated to handle this task
based on the immense experience of machine learning. Deep learning approaches require enormous experiments
to design the optimal configurations for the best performance. Automatic machine learning (AutoML) using
hyperparameter optimization to search the optimal training strategy makes it possible to find the appropriate
settings without much deep experience. However, biases of training data can be highly related to the AutoML
performance and efficiency. In this paper, we propose an AutoML framework that uses pre-selected proxy data
to represent the entire dataset which has the potential to reduce the computation time needed for efficient
hyperparameter optimization in searching learning. Both quantitative and qualitative results showed that our
framework can effectively build more powerful segmentation models than manually designed deep-learning-based
methods and AutoML, which use carefully tuned hyperparameters and randomly selected training subsets,
respectively. The average Dice score for 10-class abdominal organ segmentation was 85.9%.
