Simple deployment examples (serving ML models on web API)

• Serving a linear regression model through a simple HTTP server interface. User needs to request predictions by executing a Python script. Uses Flask and Gunicorn.

• Serving a recurrent neural network (RNN) through a HTTP webpage, complete with a web form, where users can input parameters and click a button to generate text based on the pre-trained RNN model. Uses Flask, Jinja, Keras/TensorFlow, WTForms.

Object-oriented programming with machine learning

Implementing some of the core OOP principles in a machine learning context by building your own Scikit-learn-like estimator, and making it better.

See my articles on Medium on this topic.

• Object-oriented programming for data scientists: Build your ML estimator
• How a simple mix of object-oriented programming can sharpen your deep learning prototype

Check the files and detailed instructions in the Pytest directory to understand how one should write unit testing code/module for machine learning models

Memory and timing profiling

Profiling data science code and ML models for memory footprint and computing time is a critical but often overlooed area. Here are a couple of Notebooks showing the ideas,
