Answer 1

As I've just stumbled upon this question I'd like to add this answer possible with the current version of AutoMapper (even if the original question is already pretty old):

public class MyConfig
{
    public string Foo { get; set; }
    public int Bar { get; set; }
}
var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => {});
var mapper = config.CreateMapper();

var source = new Dictionary
{
    ["Foo"] = "Hello",
    ["Bar"] = 123
};
var obj = mapper.Map(source);
obj.Foo == "Hello"; // true
