MLOps Guided Hackathon
Azure Machine Learning enables you to create a workspace with compute instance and use the Azure Machine Learning designer to define a workflow and create a machine learning model that can be published as a web service for inferencing. It's important to be able to interpret machine learning models to understand how they make predictions and explain the rationale for machine learning-based decisions. Unintentional bias can be incorporated into machine learning models, leading to issues with fairness, and it's necessary to consider the potential impact on different groups. Monitoring for data drift and retraining machine learning models as necessary is important to ensure continued accuracy of predictions over time.
Hackathon Challenges
- Challenge 1: Create an Azure ML Workspace and Workflow using Diabetes Data
- Challenge 2: Use Azure ML Learning to interpret a model.
- Challenge 3: Detect and Mitigate Unfairness in Models
- Challenge 4: Monitoring for Data drift
