In part one and two, we introduced Iguazio's feature store and discussed the benefits of using one in the ML workflow. Additionally, we ingested and transformed the data that we will be using to train our model. In this blog, we will do the following.
Organizations increasingly turn to AI to transform work processes, but this rapid adoption of models has amplified the need for explainable AI. Explaining AI helps us understand how and why models make predictions. For example, a financial institution might wish to use an AI model to automatically flag credit card transactions for fraudulent activity. While an accurate fraud model would be a first step, accuracy alone isn’t sufficient.
AI models get smarter, more accurate, and therefore more useful over the course of their training on large datasets that have been painstakingly curated, often over a period of years. But in real-world applications, datasets start small. To design a new drug, for instance, researchers start by testing a compound and need to use the power of AI to predict the best possible permutation.
Last time, we discussed why organizations might require the functionality of a feature store like Iguazio's. In this blog, we will actually get into the project and cover the following.
In the latest instalment of our interviews speaking to leaders throughout the world of tech, we’ve welcomed Semih Cantürk. Semih is a Machine Learning Engineer at Zetane Systems and an MSc & incoming PhD student at the University of Montréal and MILA Institute. At Zetane, he’s responsible for the development and integration of explainable AI algorithms in addition to leading various project work.
In this series of blog posts, we will showcase an end-to-end hybrid cloud ML workflow using the Iguazio MLOps Platform & Feature Store combined with Azure ML. This blog will be more of an overview of the solution and the types of problems it solves, while the next parts will be a technical deep dive into each step of the process.
When AI came on the scene in analytics, Qlik took a very different approach than ‘black box’ tools. We felt strongly that AI should be utilized to enhance human intuition, instead of replacing it. And of course, the term augmented analytics is now well known. That’s not a coincidence.
Most data science projects don’t pass the PoC phase and hence never generate any business value. In 2019, Gartner estimated that “through 2022, only 20% of analytic insights will deliver business outcomes”. One of the main reasons for this is undoubtedly that data scientists often lack a clear vision of how to deploy their solutions into production, how to integrate them with existing systems and workflows and how to operate and maintain them.
