Getting to know the elephant: Real-time debugging and visualization for deep learning
Who is this presentation for?
- Software engineers, machine learning engineers, and deep learning researchers
Level
Description
While deep learning has been wildly successful at many tasks, our understanding of why these models work or don’t has been severely limited. Simultaneously, the area of model understanding and explaining its success of failures has been a fairly underrepresented area.
Shital Shah explores a new tool, TensorWatch, built at Microsoft Research to help and accelerate debugging and visualization for deep learning. This tool was designed from the ground up, rethinking fundamental primitives needed for such tasks and putting composability front and center. The framework is real time, interactive, and provides accelerated insights on how deep learning model works. Shital walks you through different aspects of workflows that machine learning practitioners frequently encounter. For example, quickly answering questions such as, what’s happening in the training, if the model architecture good enough, and why the model is failing for this given data. You’ll see a live interactive code running for demos.
Prerequisite knowledge
- A basic understanding of deep learning, Python programming, Jupyter notebooks, statistics, and deep learning metrics
What you'll learn
- Learn how to debug and visualize deep learning models, explore data, and investigate architecture issues with model
