The design patterns in this book capture best practices and solutions to recurring problems in machine learning. The authors, three Google engineers, catalog proven methods to help data scientists tackle common problems throughout the ML process. These design patterns codify the experience of hundreds of experts into straightforward, approachable advice.In this book, you will find detailed explanations of 30 patterns for data and problem representation, operationalization, repeatability, reproducibility, flexibility, explainability, and fairness. Each pattern includes a description of the problem, a variety of potential solutions, and recommendations for choosing the best technique for your situation.You'll learn how to:Identify and mitigate common challenges when training, evaluating, and deploying ML modelsRepresent data for different ML model types, including embeddings, feature crosses, and moreChoose the right model type for specific problemsBuild a robust training loop that uses checkpoints, distribution strategy, and hyperparameter tuningDeploy scalable ML systems that you can retrain and update to reflect new dataInterpret model predictions for stakeholders and ensure models are treating users fairly

This practical book shows you how to employ machine learning models to extract information from images. ML engineers and data scientists will learn how to solve a variety of image problems including classification, object detection, autoencoders, image generation, counting, and captioning with proven ML techniques. This book provides a great introduction to end-to-end deep learning: dataset creation, data preprocessing, model design, model training, evaluation, deployment, and interpretability.Google engineers Valliappa Lakshmanan, Martin Grner, and Ryan Gillard show you how to develop accurate and explainable computer vision ML models and put them into large-scale production using robust ML architecture in a flexible and maintainable way. You'll learn how to design, train, evaluate, and predict with models written in TensorFlow or Keras.You'll learn how to:Design ML architecture for computer vision tasksSelect a model (such as ResNet, SqueezeNet, or EfficientNet) appropriate to your taskCreate an end-to-end ML pipeline to train, evaluate, deploy, and explain your modelPreprocess images for data augmentation and to support learnabilityIncorporate explainability and responsible AI best practicesDeploy image models as web services or on edge devicesMonitor and manage ML models

Work with petabyte-scale datasets while building a collaborative, agile workplace in the process. This practical book is the canonical reference to Google BigQuery, the query engine that lets you conduct interactive analysis of large datasets. BigQuery enables enterprises to efficiently store, query, ingest, and learn from their data in a convenient framework. With this book, youll examine how to analyze data at scale to derive insights from large datasets efficiently.Valliappa Lakshmanan, tech lead for Google Cloud Platform, and Jordan Tigani, engineering director for the BigQuery team, provide best practices for modern data warehousing within an autoscaled, serverless public cloud. Whether you want to explore parts of BigQuery youre not familiar with or prefer to focus on specific tasks, this reference is indispensable.

The ability to create automated algorithms to process gridded spatial data is increasingly important as remotely sensed datasets increase in volume and frequency.
