Overview of this book

Debugging Machine Learning Models with Python is a comprehensive guide that navigates you through the entire spectrum of mastering machine learning, from foundational concepts to advanced techniques. It goes beyond the basics to arm you with the expertise essential for building reliable, high-performance models for industrial applications. Whether you're a data scientist, analyst, machine learning engineer, or Python developer, this book will empower you to design modular systems for data preparation, accurately train and test models, and seamlessly integrate them into larger technologies. By bridging the gap between theory and practice, you'll learn how to evaluate model performance, identify and address issues, and harness recent advancements in deep learning and generative modeling using PyTorch and scikit-learn. Your journey to developing high quality models in practice will also encompass causal and human-in-the-loop modeling and machine learning explainability. With hands-on examples and clear explanations, you'll develop the skills to deliver impactful solutions across domains such as healthcare, finance, and e-commerce.

Machine learning differential testing

Differential testing attempts to check two versions of a piece of software, considered as base and test versions, on the same input and then compare the outputs. This process helps us identify whether the outputs are the same and identify unexpected differences (Gulzar et al., 2019; Figure 8.3):

In differential testing, the base version is already verified and considered the approved version, while the test version needs to be checked in comparison with the base version in producing the correct output. In differential testing, we can also aim to assess whether the observed differences between the outputs of the base and test versions are expected or can be explained.

In machine learning modeling, we can also benefit from differential testing when comparing...
