A simple and interpretable performance measure for a binary classifier
Binary classification tasks are the bread and butter of machine learning. However, the standard statistic for its performance is a mathematical tool that is difficult to interpret -- the ROC-AUC. Here, a performance measure is introduced that simply considers the probability of making a correct binary classification.

Scaling the Wall Between Data Scientist and Data Engineer
By Matthew T. Dearing on February 17, 2020 in Advice, Data Engineer, Data Engineering, Data Scientist, Deployment, DevOps, Machine Learning Engineer, MLflow, MLOps, ProductionThe educational and research focuses of machine learning tends to highlight the model building, training, testing, and optimization aspects of the data science process. To bring these models into use requires a suite of engineering feats and organization, a standard for which does not yet exist. Learn more about a framework for operating a collaborative data science and engineering team to deploy machine learning models to end-users.
