Overview of this book

Deep learning enables previously unattainable feats in automation, but extracting real-world business value from it is a daunting task. This book will teach you how to build complex deep learning models and gain intuition for structuring your data to accomplish your deep learning objectives. This deep learning book explores every aspect of the deep learning life cycle, from planning and data preparation to model deployment and governance, using real-world scenarios that will take you through creating, deploying, and managing advanced solutions. You’ll also learn how to work with image, audio, text, and video data using deep learning architectures, as well as optimize and evaluate your deep learning models objectively to address issues such as bias, fairness, adversarial attacks, and model transparency. As you progress, you’ll harness the power of AI platforms to streamline the deep learning life cycle and leverage Python libraries and frameworks such as PyTorch, ONNX, Catalyst, MLFlow, Captum, Nvidia Triton, Prometheus, and Grafana to execute efficient deep learning architectures, optimize model performance, and streamline the deployment processes. You’ll also discover the transformative potential of large language models (LLMs) for a wide array of applications. By the end of this book, you'll have mastered deep learning techniques to unlock its full potential for your endeavors.

Engineering the base model evaluation metric

Engineering a metric for your use case is a skill that is often overlooked. This is most likely because most projects work on a publicly available dataset, which almost always already has a metric proposed. This includes projects on Kaggle and many public datasets people use to benchmark against. However, this does not happen in real life and a metric doesn’t just get served to you. Let’s explore this topic further here and gain this skillset.

The model evaluation metric is the first evaluation method that is essential in supervised projects, excluding unsupervised-based projects. There are a few baseline metrics that exist to be the de facto metrics depending on the problem and target type. Additionally, there are also more customized versions of these baseline metrics that are catered to special objectives. For example, generative-based tasks can be evaluated through a special human-based opinion score called the mean...
