ML.NET Hackathon Idea - Interactive data exploration and model construction with F# #7

Open fwaris opened 3 years ago

Hackathon Idea

Show how to effectively use the F# interactive environment with ML.Net - i.e. interactively explore, visualize and transform data prior to model construction. Data understanding very often provides insights that lead to better ML results.

Brief Description

Data exploration and understanding is an essential part of model building. However it is best done interactively.

The purpose of this hackathon is to show how existing capabilities (e.g. Visual Studio F# interactive) can be used to perform data exploration/visualization/transformation and then model construction -- in the same environment.

In the Python world we often use iPython notebooks to achieve the same. However, with F# interactive this all can be done in a type-safe manner, supported by Visual Studio tooling capabilities e.g., Intellisense, etc.

A broader understanding of these techniques should support greater adoption of ML.Net - which it most definitely deserves!

I am thinking this idea could be compatible with my idea (idea # 12). So I can see the process could be: Initial Data => Idea #12 => Idea #7. So the output of Idea # 12 could be fed to idea#7 for a creation of a model that in turn can be consumed via different channels.
