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.

Beyond performance

Paying any price for improving the performance of machine learning models is not the objective of modeling as part of bigger pipelines at the industrial level. Increasing the performance of models by a tenth of a percent could help you win machine learning competitions or publish papers by beating state-of-the-art models. But not all improvements result in models worth deploying to production. An example of such efforts, which has been common in machine learning competitions, is model stacking. Model stacking is about using the output of multiple models to train a secondary model, which could increase the cost of inference by orders of magnitude. Python’s implementation of stacking of the logistic regression, k-nearest neighbor, random forest, support vector machine, and XGBoost classification models on the breast cancer dataset from scikit-learn is shown here. A secondary logistic regression model uses predictions of each of these primary models as input...
