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.

Summary

We have just built a time series analysis model in Prophet and tracked it in Comet!

Throughout this chapter, we described some general concepts regarding time series analysis, including stationarity, seasonality, and breakpoints. In addition, you have learned the main concepts behind the Prophet package and how to combine it with Comet.

In the last part of the chapter, you implemented a practical use case that showed you how to track and compare two time series analysis experiments in Comet, as well as how to build a report with the results of the experiments.

The world of data science is very promising and challenging. Both research and industry sectors are constantly trying to improve current knowledge with new algorithms, frameworks, and tools. Throughout this book, you have investigated Comet, one of the promising platforms for experiment tracking and monitoring.

I hope that all the concepts you learned in this book will help you to increase your knowledge...
