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.

Governing deep learning model utilization

Model utilization, the first pillar of model governance for deep learning models, is crucial for the responsible and ethical deployment of these sophisticated tools. In this section, we will explore the integral aspects of model utilization, including guardrail filters, accountability, compliance, validation, shared access, transparency, and decision support systems. By comprehensively addressing these aspects, deep learning architects can ensure effective model utilization that maximizes value from the model while mitigating potential risks and unintended consequences. Let’s dive deeper into these aspects:

  • Guardrail filters: These play a crucial role in ensuring that models operate within established boundaries, minimizing the risks associated with inaccurate or harmful predictions. These filters help maintain the original purpose of the models. While the objectives of using a model’s predictions can significantly vary...
