Mastering Model Retraining in MLOps

<p>Model retraining is a critical component of any robust MLOps stack, yet it is often overlooked. In this comprehensive guide, I&rsquo;ll cover what model retraining is, why it&rsquo;s needed, different retraining approaches, triggers, and best practices.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*TWh2d_9ONqUF-cwjbr7cwg.png" style="height:378px; width:700px" /></p> <h1>What is Model Retraining?</h1> <p>Retraining refers to the process of creating a new model version by re-running the training pipeline on new data. This updates the model to reflect changes in the data over time.</p> <p>Without periodic retraining, model performance deteriorates due to:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Data drift</strong>&nbsp;&mdash; Statistical properties of incoming data change.</li> <li><strong>Concept drift</strong>&nbsp;&mdash; The underlying relationships/mappings change.</li> </ul> <p>Retraining mitigates these effects by incorporating new data.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/cloudnloud/mastering-model-retraining-in-mlops-5cc8db324666"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
