The world-renowned streaming service Netflix changed its five-star rating system to "thumbs up" in 2017 Simple rating system of "thumbs down" (like) and "thumbs down" (dislike). The system can recommend movies based on percentage matches, but some people find this objectionable. So how do you reduce all the nuances in the art of cinema to a primitive binary reaction? Give it a high rating, but it's not necessarily a movie they'd actually enjoy watching. At least that's what the data says. So how does data analytics work at a company like Netflix? What is the role of the data science team?
NETFLIX FEEDBACK SYSTEM
Extraction: Extract data from the data source and send it to the staging area.
Transformation: Prepare data for consumption and load to push the prepared data further into ETL.
- All prepared data goes into another storage, the data warehouse.
- Data Warehouse
Data Engineer
The data engineer is responsible for building the entire pipeline. Most technicians are well versed in what is called "piping." Move data from source to destination through pipelines, transforming it along the way. They design the pipeline architecture, set up the ETL process, configure the warehouse, and connect it with reporting tools. For example, Airbnb has about 50 data engineers. The company may sometimes encounter a more elaborate approach that involves some additional rules. For example, data quality engineers ensure that data is captured and transformed correctly. Having biased or incorrect data is too costly when trying to draw decisions from it. There may be a separate engineer responsible only for ETL. Additionally, business intelligence developers only focus on integrating reporting and visualization tools. However, reporting tools don’t grab the headlines, and data engineer isn’t the best job of the 21st century, but machine learning and data scientist probably are.
Machine Learning and Data Scientists
It is well known that data scientists are particularly good at collecting data and answering complex questions about the data, such as what will the company's revenue be next quarter? When will the car scheduled with Uber arrive? How likely is it to like Schindler's List and Uncut Gems?
There are actually two ways to answer these questions. Data scientists work with business intelligence tools and warehouse data just like business analysts and data analysts. So, they will get the data from the warehouse. Sometimes data scientists use a data lake: another type of storage for unstructured fraud data. They will create a forecast model and come up with forecasts that can be used by management. It's good for one-time reporting of revenue estimates, but it's not helpful for predicting arrival times of cars for Uber appointments.
The real value of machine learning is that production models can work automatically and regularly generate answers to complex questions, sometimes thousands of times per second, and the things they can handle are much more complex.
Producing Machine Learning Models
In order for the model to work, infrastructure is also required. Sometimes this is a big problem. Data scientists explore data in data warehouses and data lakes, conduct experiments on it, select algorithms, and train models to produce final machine learning code. This requires a deep understanding of statistical databases, machine learning algorithms, and subject areas.
Josh Wills, the former head of data engineering at SLAC, said on Twitter, "Data scientists are people who are better at statistics than any software engineering."
For example, orderers use ubereats software order. Once the user confirms the order, the application must estimate the delivery time, the orderer's location, the restaurant and the order data to be sent to a server where a delivery prediction machine learning model is deployed. But these data are not enough. The model also pulls additional data from a separate database that contains average restaurant prep times and other details. Once all the data is available, the model returns predictions to the orderer. However, the process does not end there. The predictions themselves are saved in a separate database. It will be aimed at monitoring model performance and exploring the model through analysis tools so that it can be updated later. All this data ends up in data lakes and data warehouses.
In fact, the UberEats food ordering service alone uses hundreds of different models working simultaneously to score recommendations, rank restaurants in searches, and estimate delivery times.
Conclusion
Adam Waxman, the core technology leader of Foursquare, believes that there will no longer be data scientists or machine learning engineers in the future, because with the automation of model training and the continuous construction of production environments, Many data scientist jobs will become common functions in software development.

近年来,基于深度学习的模型在目标检测和图像识别等任务中表现出色。像ImageNet这样具有挑战性的图像分类数据集,包含1000种不同的对象分类,现在一些模型已经超过了人类水平上。但是这些模型依赖于监督训练流程,标记训练数据的可用性对它们有重大影响,并且模型能够检测到的类别也仅限于它们接受训练的类。由于在训练过程中没有足够的标记图像用于所有类,这些模型在现实环境中可能不太有用。并且我们希望的模型能够识别它在训练期间没有见到过的类,因为几乎不可能在所有潜在对象的图像上进行训练。我们将从几个样本中学习

译者 | 朱先忠审校 | 孙淑娟引言模型超参数(或模型设置)的优化可能是训练机器学习算法中最重要的一步,因为它可以找到最小化模型损失函数的最佳参数。这一步对于构建不易过拟合的泛化模型也是必不可少的。优化模型超参数的最著名技术是穷举网格搜索和随机网格搜索。在第一种方法中,搜索空间被定义为跨越每个模型超参数的域的网格。通过在网格的每个点上训练模型来获得最优超参数。尽管网格搜索非常容易实现,但它在计算上变得昂贵,尤其是当要优化的变量数量很大时。另一方面,随机网格搜索是一种更快的优化方法,可以提供更好的
