Lab : Working with Datastores
Lab : Working with Datasets
After completing this module, you will be able to
• Create and consume datastores
• Create and consume datasets
Module 5: Compute Contexts
One of the key benefits of the cloud is the ability to leverage compute resources on demand, and use them to scale machine learning processes to an extent that would be infeasible on your own hardware. In this module, you'll learn how to manage experiment environments that ensure consistent runtime consistency for experiments, and how to create and use compute targets for experiment runs.
• Working with Environments
• Working with Compute Targets
Lab : Working with Environments
Lab : Working with Compute Targets
After completing this module, you will be able to
• Create and use environments
• Create and use compute targets
Module 6: Orchestrating Operations with Pipelines
Now that you understand the basics of running workloads as experiments that leverage data assets and compute resources, it's time to learn how to orchestrate these workloads as pipelines of connected steps. Pipelines are key to implementing an effective Machine Learning Operationalization (ML Ops) solution in Azure, so you'll explore how to define and run them in this module.
• Introduction to Pipelines
• Publishing and Running Pipelines
Lab : Creating a Pipeline
Lab : Publishing a Pipeline
After completing this module, you will be able to
• Create pipelines to automate machine learning workflows
• Publish and run pipeline services
Module 7: Deploying and Consuming Models
Models are designed to help decision making through predictions, so they're only useful when deployed and available for an application to consume. In this module learn how to deploy models for real-time inferencing, and for batch inferencing.
• Real-time Inferencing
• Batch Inferencing
Lab : Creating a Real-time Inferencing Service
Lab : Creating a Batch Inferencing Service
After completing this module, you will be able to
• Publish a model as a real-time inference service
• Publish a model as a batch inference service
Module 8: Training Optimal Models
By this stage of the course, you've learned the end-to-end process for training, deploying, and consuming machine learning models; but how do you ensure your model produces the best predictive outputs for your data? In this module, you'll explore how you can use hyperparameter tuning and automated machine learning to take advantage of cloud-scale compute and find the best model for your data.
• Hyperparameter Tuning
• Automated Machine Learning
Lab : Tuning Hyperparameters
Lab : Using Automated Machine Learning
After completing this module, you will be able to
• Optimize hyperparameters for model training
• Use automated machine learning to find the optimal model for your data
Module 9: Interpreting Models
Many of the decisions made by organizations and automated systems today are based on predictions made by machine learning models. It's increasingly important to be able to understand the factors that influence the predictions made by a model, and to be able to determine any unintended biases in the model's behavior. This module describes how you can interpret models to explain how feature importance determines their predictions.
• Introduction to Model Interpretation
• using Model Explainers
Lab : Reviewing Automated Machine Learning Explanations
Lab : Interpreting Models
