Overview of this book

Data scientists working on productionizing machine learning (ML) workloads face a breadth of challenges at every step owing to the countless factors involved in getting ML models deployed and running. This book offers solutions to common issues, detailed explanations of essential concepts, and step-by-step instructions to productionize ML workloads using the Azure Machine Learning service. You’ll see how data scientists and ML engineers working with Microsoft Azure can train and deploy ML models at scale by putting their knowledge to work with this practical guide. Throughout the book, you’ll learn how to train, register, and productionize ML models by making use of the power of the Azure Machine Learning service. You’ll get to grips with scoring models in real time and batch, explaining models to earn business trust, mitigating model bias, and developing solutions using an MLOps framework. By the end of this Azure Machine Learning book, you’ll be ready to build and deploy end-to-end ML solutions into a production system using the Azure Machine Learning service for real-time scenarios.

Responsible AI

One of the recent research areas to emerge in artificial intelligence (AI) is making models responsible and accountable, thus producing accurate results, as opposed to biased or incomplete results. This is a new area of computer science, but it is also something many in the data science field are looking into. Microsoft is concentrating its efforts on a number of areas, including Fairness, Reliability and Safety, Privacy and Security, Inclusiveness, Transparency, and Accountability. Microsoft has provided a toolbox that can be used and applied to datasets and models to address these topics. In this chapter, we will be exploring what these terms mean and how Microsoft’s Responsible AI Toolbox can be leveraged to address these concerns.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Responsible AI principles
  • Response AI Toolbox overview
  • Responsible AI dashboard
  • Error analysis
  • Interpretability dashboard
  • Fairness dashboard
