Nothing need to be installed or updated to run this project.
This project mainly focuses on a disciplined and better-arranged AI project structure. By default, project is divided in sicx parts: data, download, model, submit(for competitions like kaggle), timeline, utils.
Commonly, whole steps of AI project include three parts such as data pre-processing, model training, testing, deploying and post (by different platforms, like website or APP). Corresponding to different steps, different folder is expected to be used.
Besides, folder timeline is used for the project management, for example, storing different versions of project timeline files. Some common-used tools to accelerate the construction of AI project are stored in folder utils which is easy to be expanded as you like. Further descriptions for each folder or child folder, child file are listed in the sheet below.
In this project, I was interested in how to create a common-used file structure to make machine learning projects more organized and more readable.
Master branch only contains the general descriptions of this project.
Full version of this file structure is introduced in "template" branch in detail. "develop" branch contains TODOs which haven't been checked and reviewed. The applications of this file structure are displayed in several branches named by "ie_xxx" respectively.

| data/data_raw | a folder containing raw data obtained by direct downloading or spiders like scrapy and so on |
| -- | -- |
| model/ | a folder containing jupyter notebooks of different modeling and descriptions (e.g. loss) for modeling |
| model/collector | a folder containing description files for modeling |
| model/save | a folder containing files of saved models |
| model/submit | a folder containing files of each submit for competition |
| -- | -- |
| timeline/ | a folder containing files indicating specific time arrangement of different competition period |

clone or download all repository with master branch
read all descriptions listed in the section "A proposed project structure" of this README.md file carefully, make sure get the idea of the usage of each folder and each file.
Guided by the management of your project, use the specific folder and file templates to accelerate the accomplishment of specific tasks. For example , when preprocessing data , use the template notebook "data_process . Ipynb " and "data_process_tricks . Ipynb " located in " utils " folder to assist programming , while building model , the folder " model " and other notebooks in " utils " folder will be helpful .
