Fundamentals of CI/CD, YAML, and Machine Learning
You'll be introduced to the fundamental concepts of CI/CD and YAML, and gain an understanding of the software development life cycle and key terms like build, test, and deploy. You'll define Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Deployment while examining their distinctions. You'll also explore the utility of CI/CD in machine learning and experimentation.GitHub Actions for CI/CD Automation
You'll learn about GA, a powerful platform for implementing CI/CD workflows. You'll discover the various elements of GA, including events, actions, jobs, steps, runners, and context. You'll learn how to define workflows triggered by events such as push and pull requests and customize runner machines. You'll also gain practical experience by setting up basic CI pipelines and understanding the GA log.Versioning Datasets with Data Version Control
You'll delve deep into Data Version Control (DVC) for versioning datasets, initializing DVC, and tracking datasets. Using DVC pipelines, you'll learn how to train classification models and generate metrics in a reproducible manner.Optimizing Model Performance and Hyperparameter Tuning
You'll now focus on model performance analysis and hyperparameter tuning and gain practical skills in diffing metrics and plots across branches to compare changes in model performance. You'll learn how to download artifacts using GA and perform hyperparameter tuning using scikit-learn's GridSearchCV. Additionally, you'll explore automating pull requests with the best model configuration.Prerequisites

Introduction to Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery and YAML
In this chapter, you will explore the essential principles of Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) and YAML. You'll grasp the software development life cycle and key terms like build, test, and deploy. Discover the differences between Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Deployment. Moreover, you'll investigate the significance of CI/CD in machine learning and experimentation.
2
GitHub Actions
Get ready to explore GitHub Actions (GHA), an influential platform for executing CI/CD workflows. Uncover the diverse components of GHA, encompassing events, actions, jobs, steps, runners, and context. Gain insights into crafting workflows that activate upon events like push and pull requests, and tailor runner machines. Dive into hands-on learning as you establish fundamental CI pipelines and grasp the intricacies of the GHA log.
3
Continuous Integration in Machine Learning
In this chapter, you'll explore the integration of machine learning model training into a GitHub Action pipeline using Continuous Machine Learning GitHub Action. You'll generate a comprehensive markdown report including model metrics and plots. You will also delve into data versioning in Machine Learning by adopting Data Version Control (DVC) to track data changes. The chapter also covers setting DVC remotes and dataset transfers. Finally, you'll explore DVC pipelines, configuring a DVC YAML file to orchestrate reproducible model training.
4
Comparing training runs and Hyperparameter (HP) tuning
In this chapter, you will direct your attention towards the analysis of model performance and the fine-tuning of hyperparameters. You will acquire practical expertise in comparing metrics and visualizations across different branches to assess changes in model performance. You will
conduct hyperparameter tuning using scikit-learn's GridSearchCV. Furthermore, you will delve into the automation of pull requests using the optimal model configuration.
