Hannes Hapke – författare

Using machine learning for products, services, and critical business processes is quite different from using ML in an academic or research setting—especially for recent ML graduates and those moving from research to a commercial environment. Whether you currently work to create products and services that use ML, or would like to in the future, this practical book gives you a broad view of the entire field.

Authors Robert Crowe, Hannes Hapke, Emily Caveness, and Di Zhu help you identify topics that you can dive into deeper, along with reference materials and tutorials that teach you the details. You''ll learn the state of the art of machine learning engineering, including a wide range of topics such as modeling, deployment, and MLOps. You''ll learn the basics and advanced aspects to understand the production ML lifecycle.

This book provides four in-depth sections that cover all aspects of machine learning engineering:

Data: collecting, labeling, validating, automation, and data preprocessing; data feature engineering and selection; data journey and storageModeling: high performance modeling; model resource management techniques; model analysis and interoperability; neural architecture searchDeployment: model serving patterns and infrastructure for ML models and LLMs; management and delivery; monitoring and loggingProductionalizing: ML pipelines; classifying unstructured texts and images; genAI model pipelines

Companies are spending billions on machine learning projects, but it’s money wasted if the models can’t be deployed effectively. In this practical guide, Hannes Hapke and Catherine Nelson walk you through the steps of automating a machine learning pipeline using the TensorFlow ecosystem. You’ll learn the techniques and tools that will cut deployment time from days to minutes, so that you can focus on developing new models rather than maintaining legacy systems.

Data scientists, machine learning engineers, and DevOps engineers will discover how to go beyond model development to successfully productize their data science projects, while managers will better understand the role they play in helping to accelerate these projects.

Generative AI enables powerful new capabilities, but they come with some serious limitations that you'll have to tackle to ship a reliable application or agent. Luckily, experts in the field have compiled a library of 32 tried-and-true design patterns to address the challenges you're likely to encounter when building applications using LLMs, such as hallucinations, nondeterministic responses, and knowledge cutoffs.This book codifies research and real-world experience into advice you can incorporate into your projects. Each pattern describes a problem, shows a proven way to solve it with a fully coded example, and discusses trade-offs.Design around the limitations of LLMsEnsure that generated content follows a specific style, tone, or formatMaximize creativity while balancing different types of riskBuild agents that plan, self-correct, take action, and collaborate with other agentsCompose patterns into agentic applications for a variety of use cases
