Comet for Data Science

By: Angelica Lo Duca

Overview of this book

This book provides concepts and practical use cases which can be used to quickly build, monitor, and optimize data science projects. Using Comet, you will learn how to manage almost every step of the data science process from data collection through to creating, deploying, and monitoring a machine learning model. The book starts by explaining the features of Comet, along with exploratory data analysis and model evaluation in Comet. You’ll see how Comet gives you the freedom to choose from a selection of programming languages, depending on which is best suited to your needs. Next, you will focus on workspaces, projects, experiments, and models. You will also learn how to build a narrative from your data, using the features provided by Comet. Later, you will review the basic concepts behind DevOps and how to extend the GitLab DevOps platform with Comet, further enhancing your ability to deploy your data science projects. Finally, you will cover various use cases of Comet in machine learning, NLP, deep learning, and time series analysis, gaining hands-on experience with some of the most interesting and valuable data science techniques available. By the end of this book, you will be able to confidently build data science pipelines according to bespoke specifications and manage them through Comet.

Introducing basic deep learning concepts

The following figure shows how deep learning fits into the field of artificial intelligence:

Figure 10.1 – How deep learning is related to other artificial intelligence fields

You can see that deep learning is a subfield of neural networks, which are a subfield of machine learning, which is a subfield of artificial intelligence. In this section, you will understand the difference between deep learning and neural networks as well as how you can classify deep learning networks.

You will learn some general concepts about deep learning. For more details, you can refer to the books contained in the Further reading section of this chapter.

The section is organized as follows:

  • Introducing neural networks
  • Exploring the difference between deep learning and neural networks
  • Classifying deep learning networks

Let’s start from the first point: introducing neural networks.
