Lesson 10 of the free MLA-C02 beta series (AWS Certified Machine Learning Engineer – Associate, domain 2, model development). In this lesson: overfitting, underfitting, and catastrophic forgetting, ensembles (bagging, boosting, stacking, cascades), training that does not converge, and explanations with SageMaker Clarify and SHAP values. With three quick checks and a recap, and AnyCompany Mobility, a car sharing service, as the running example.

Preview the topics
  • The deposit model reaches 99% accuracy on the training data and 71% on the validation data. What should the ML engineer do?
  • A deep network trains normally for a few hundred steps, then its gradients grow larger at every step, and the loss turns into NaN. The inputs are already normalized. What should the ML engineer do?
  • A support agent must explain to one customer which features led the model to ask for a higher deposit. What should the ML engineer give the agent?
