In the world of deep learning, complex models are data-hungry — in both quality and quantity — to perform well on inference at test time. However, in real-world Artificial Intelligence projects by commercial companies, Machine Learning Engineers seldom have the luxury of readily available training data. Especially for start-ups that begin with essentially zero data, the process of building up a dedicated data lake or data warehouse may be very time-consuming.
Moreover, in the data-centric approach to machine learning, the quality of training data collected is equally important to the performance of the deep learning model,… Read the full blog for free on Medium.
