It begins with a deep dive into methods like A\/B testing, progressing to advanced techniques used in industries such as finance and social media to measure performance. By the end of this book, readers will be able to design, run, and analyze A\/B tests, break feedback loops caused by periodic retraining of ML models, increase experimentation rates with multi-armed bandits, tune multiple parameters experimentally with Bayesian optimization, clearly define business metrics used for decision-making, identify and avoid common pitfalls of experimentation, and seamlessly deploy experiments in production while avoiding common pitfalls.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis unique book unveils sophisticated experimentation practices developed and proven in the world's most competitive industries, helping readers enhance machine learning systems, software applications, and quantitative trading solutions. Experimentation is the only way to answer questions like whether software works, changes improve or worsen, or features should be traded for performance. By leveraging these practices, engineers can optimize their systems and achieve competitive advantage in their respective fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 456g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 190 x 15 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781617298158\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Sweet","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44133541478650,"sku":"9781617298158","price":42.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1679652991614_book.jpg?v=1680102668","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/experimentation-for-engineers-9781617298158","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
