Python Debugging for AI, Machine Learning, and Cloud Computing
This book is for those who wish to understand how Python debugging is and can be used to develop robust and reliable AI, machine learning, and cloud computing software. It will teach you a novel pattern-oriented approach to diagnose and debug abnormal software structure and behavior.The book begins with an introduction to the pattern-oriented software diagnostics and debugging process that, before performing Python debugging, diagnoses problems in various software artifacts such as memory dumps, traces, and logs. Next, you’ll learn to use various debugging patterns through Python case studies that model abnormal software behavior. You’ll also be exposed to Python debugging techniques specific to cloud native and machine learning environments and explore how recent advances in AI/ML can help in Python debugging. Over the course of the book, case studies will show you how to resolve issues around environmental problems, crashes, hangs, resource spikes, leaks, and performance degradation. This includes tracing, logging, and analyziing memory dumps using native WinDbg and GDB debuggers. Upon completing this book, you will have the knowledge and tools needed to employ Python debugging in the development of AI, machine learning, and cloud computing applications.What You Will LearnEmploy a pattern-oriented approach to Python debugging that starts with diagnostics of common software problemsUse tips and tricks to get the most out of popular IDEs, notebooks, and command-line Python debuggingUnderstand Python internals for interfacing with operating systems and external modulesPerform Python memory dump analysis, tracing, and loggingWho This Book Is ForSoftware developers, AI/ML engineers, researchers, data engineers, as well as MLOps and DevOps professionals.

Interpretable Machine Learning with Python can help you work effectively with ML models. The first section of the book is a beginner's guide to interpretability, covering its relevance in business and exploring its key aspects and challenges. You'll focus on how white-box models work, compare them to black-box and glass-box models, and examine their trade-off. The second section will get you up to speed with a vast array of interpretation methods, also known as Explainable AI (XAI) methods, and how to apply them to different use cases, be it for classification or regression, for tabular, time-series, image or text. In addition to the step-by-step code, the book also helps the reader to interpret model outcomes using examples. In the third section, you’ll get hands-on with tuning models and training data for interpretability by reducing complexity, mitigating bias, placing guardrails, and enhancing reliability. The methods you’ll explore here range from state-of-the-art feature selection and dataset debiasing methods to monotonic constraints and adversarial retraining. By the end of this book, you'll be able to understand ML models better and enhance them through interpretability tuning.What you will learnRecognize the importance of interpretability in businessStudy models that are intrinsically interpretable such as linear models, decision trees, and Naïve BayesBecome well-versed in interpreting models with model-agnostic methodsVisualize how an image classifier works and what it learnsUnderstand how to mitigate the influence of bias in datasetsDiscover how to make models more reliable with adversarial robustnessUse monotonic constraints to make fairer and safer modelsWho this book is forThis book is for data scientists, machine learning developers, and data stewards who have an increasingly critical responsibility to explain how the AI systems they develop work, their impact on decision making, and how they identify and manage bias. Working knowledge of machine learning and the Python programming language is expected.
