Machine Learning Path


As you embarked on your machine learning journey, your initial focus likely lay in mastering basic algorithms like linear regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines, and maybe even a bit of deep learning, depending on which course you took. You probably learned about evaluation methods and tackled some projects at university, during courses, or on Kaggle.

As you progressed, perhaps after landing your first data science job, you noticed that machine learning extends far beyond learning algorithms. You likely spent hours on data analysis, data preprocessing, and feature engineering. Then, you worked on model optimization. And when everything was ready and you thought you could put your model into production, you found out that your stakeholders wanted to understand how the model made its predictions and if and how they can trust it.

Unfortunately, you don’t learn all these skills in beginner courses. Like us, you probably realized the hard way, that tackling real-world projects, creating models that will be used to serve and assess real people, requires way more than fitting a model and looking at some metric values.
