商品描述

Build resilient applied machine learning teams that deliver better data products through adapting the guiding principles of the Agile Manifesto.

Bringing together talented people to create a great applied machine learning team is no small feat. With developers and data scientists both contributing expertise in their respective fields, communication alone can be a challenge. Agile Machine Learning teaches you how to deliver superior data products through agile processes and to learn, by example, how to organize and manage a fast-paced team challenged with solving novel data problems at scale, in a production environment.

The authors' approach models the ground-breaking engineering principles described in the Agile Manifesto. The book provides further context, and contrasts the original principles with the requirements of systems that deliver a data product.


What You'll Learn

  • Effectively run a data engineering team that is metrics-focused, experiment-focused, and data-focused
  • Make sound implementation and model exploration decisions based on the data and the metrics
  • Know the importance of data wallowing: analyzing data in real time in a group setting
  • Recognize the value of always being able to measure your current state objectively
  • Understand data literacy, a key attribute of a reliable data engineer, from definitions to expectations


Who This Book Is For

Anyone who manages a machine learning team, or is responsible for creating production-ready inference components. Anyone responsible for data project workflow of sampling data; labeling, training, testing, improving, and maintaining models; and system and data metrics will also find this book useful. Readers should be familiar with software engineering and understand the basics of machine learning and working with data.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

建立具有韌性的應用機器學習團隊,透過適應《敏捷宣言》的指導原則來交付更好的數據產品。

聚集有才華的人來創建一個優秀的應用機器學習團隊並非易事。開發人員和數據科學家在各自領域中貢獻專業知識,僅僅是溝通就可能成為挑戰。《敏捷機器學習》教你如何通過敏捷流程交付卓越的數據產品,並以實例學習如何組織和管理一個快速變化的團隊,應對在生產環境中解決新穎數據問題的挑戰。

作者的方式模擬了《敏捷宣言》中描述的開創性工程原則。本書提供了進一步的背景,並將原始原則與交付數據產品的系統需求進行對比。

你將學到的內容:

- 有效運行一個以指標為重點、以實驗為重點、以數據為重點的數據工程團隊
- 根據數據和指標做出合理的實施和模型探索決策
- 知道數據沉浸的重要性:在小組環境中實時分析數據
- 認識到始終能夠客觀衡量當前狀態的價值
- 理解數據素養,這是可靠數據工程師的一個關鍵特徵,從定義到期望

本書適合誰:

任何管理機器學習團隊或負責創建生產就緒推斷組件的人。負責數據項目工作流程的人,包括數據取樣、標記、訓練、測試、改進和維護模型,以及系統和數據指標的人,也會發現本書有用。讀者應該熟悉軟體工程,並理解機器學習和數據處理的基本知識。
