Riassunto

Field-tested tips, tricks, and design patterns for building machine learning projects that are deployable, maintainable, and secure from concept to production.

In Machine Learning Engineering in Action, you will learn:

    Evaluating data science problems to find the most effective solution
    Scoping a machine learning project for usage expectations and budget
    Process techniques that minimize wasted effort and speed up production
    Assessing a project using standardized prototyping work and statistical validation
    Choosing the right technologies and tools for your project
    Making your codebase more understandable, maintainable, and testable
    Automating your troubleshooting and logging practices

Ferrying a machine learning project from your data science team to your end users is no easy task. Machine Learning Engineering in Action will help you make it simple. Inside, you’ll find fantastic advice from veteran industry expert Ben Wilson, Principal Resident Solutions Architect at Databricks.

Ben introduces his personal toolbox of techniques for building deployable and maintainable production machine learning systems. You’ll learn the importance of Agile methodologies for fast prototyping and conferring with stakeholders, while developing a new appreciation for the importance of planning. Adopting well-established software development standards will help you deliver better code management, and make it easier to test, scale, and even reuse your machine learning code. Every method is explained in a friendly, peer-to-peer style and illustrated with production-ready source code.
