What is Experiment Tracking
08 July 2024 19:40

Experiment Tracking in MLOps

Experiment tracking is the process of recording all the details of machine learning experiments. This includes
configurations, code versions, datasets, metrics, and results.

Why It's Used in MLOps:

1. Reproducibility:
- Ensures experiments can be repeated with the same settings, helping to verify results.

2. Comparison:
- Makes it easy to compare different models and experiments to find the best performing one.

3. Collaboration:
- Allows team members to share and review each other's work, enhancing teamwork.

4. Efficiency:
- Saves time by avoiding repeated work and helps in quickly finding the best model settings.

5. Auditability:
- Keeps a history of all experiments, useful for tracking progress and compliance purposes.

Where does MLFlow fit:

1. Experimentation:
- Tracking: MLflow helps log parameters, metrics, and artifacts of each experiment. This ensures that all
details are recorded and can be compared later.

2. Model Development:
- Projects : Standardizes the way to package and share machine learning code. MLflow Projects can be used
to run experiments in a consistent environment.

3. Model Validation:
- Tracking: Continues to log validation metrics and results, making it easier to evaluate model performance.

4. Deployment:
- Models: MLflow allows you to register, version, and deploy models with ease. Models can be served
directly via APIs or integrated into existing systems.

5. Monitoring:
- Tracking: Helps monitor deployed models by logging predictions and performance metrics, ensuring the
model remains effective over time.

6. Lifecycle Management:
- Registry: Manages the full lifecycle of machine learning models, from development to deployment to
retirement.
