Intent:

• This repo is an introductory project to understand the creation of ML models using DVC pipelines
• With DagsHub user can visualise and compare their experiments

Setup:

1. Clone the repo:
2. Initialise dvc
3. Configure dvc remote
4. Version data file with dvc
5. You are good to go. No define pipelines and build your first ML model and pipeline. Enjoy the reproducibility of experiments.

Defining Pipelines

Idea is to build multiple model and ensemble them to create a stable strong model.

Your final pipeline structure will look like this in the end:

Order is data -> train_test_split -> feature_extraction -> 3 models -> ensemble_model and Done!!

With data/iris.csv versioned in DVC you can start with your first pipeline.

Define Stage1 => split.dvc i.e train_test_split.

dvc run -n split\

Define Stage4 => train_ensemble.dvc i.e Create an Ensemble Model.

dvc run -n train_ensemble\
 -d src/ensemble.py\
 -d data/features\
 -d data/models/logistic/model.gz\
 -d data/models/svc/model.gz\
 -d data/models/r_forrest/model.gz\
 -p ensemble\
 -o data/models/ensemble/model.gz\
 -M data/models/ensemble/metrics.csv\
 python src/ensemble.py -i "data/features/" -m "data/models/" -o "data/models/ensemble/"
