Session Goal

The primary goal of this session was to refactor a diamond pricing model by integrating Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) principles to enhance its efficiency, scalability, and maintainability.

Key Activities

  • Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) Implementation: Explored the use of SGD for predicting diamond prices, focusing on feature scaling, handling categorical features, and hyperparameter tuning.
  • MLOps Principles: Developed a strategy for refactoring the project using MLOps principles, which included data management, model deployment, and user interface considerations.
  • Project Structuring: Outlined a structured approach for organizing the machine learning project, emphasizing modular file architecture and effective use of Jupyter notebooks.
  • Project Structure Analysis: Analyzed the current project structure and provided recommendations for improving organization and scalability.
  • API Integration: Revised the project file architecture to integrate an API for model interaction, detailing the new API directory and components.
  • Bash Scripting: Utilized bash scripting to search for path separators in project files, aiding in the analysis of path dependencies.

Achievements

  • Successfully outlined a comprehensive refactoring strategy for the diamond pricing model using MLOps principles.
  • Developed a revised project structure that supports API integration and enhances scalability.
  • Provided actionable recommendations for improving project organization and maintainability.

Pending Tasks

  • Implement the revised project structure and API integration in the production environment.
  • Conduct further testing and validation of the refactored model.
  • Continue monitoring and optimizing the model’s performance post-deployment.
