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.

Exploring custom metrics and their applications

Base metrics are generally sufficient to meet the requirements of most use cases. However, custom metrics build upon base metrics and incorporate additional goals that are specific to a given scenario. It’s helpful to think of base metrics as a bachelor’s degree and custom metrics as a master’s or PhD degree. It’s perfectly fine to use only base metrics if they meet your needs and you don’t have any additional requirements.

Custom ideals often arise naturally early on in a project and are highly dependent on the specific use case. Most real use cases don’t expose their chosen metrics to the public, even when the prediction of the model is meant to be utilized publicly, such as Open AI’s ChatGPT. However, in machine learning competitions, companies with real use cases accompanied by data publish their chosen metric publicly to find the best model that can be built. In such a setting for...
