**Starting May 8, enrollment for the Machine Learning Engineering for Production Specialization will be closed. Please enroll in this specialization or to individual courses by then to gain access to this course material.**
In the third course of Machine Learning Engineering for Production Specialization, you will build models for different serving environments; implement tools and techniques to effectively manage your modeling resources and best serve offline and online inference requests; and use analytics tools and performance metrics to address model fairness, explainability issues, and mitigate bottlenecks.
Understanding machine learning and deep learning concepts is essential, but if you’re looking to build an effective AI career, you need production engineering capabilities as well. Machine learning engineering for production combines the foundational concepts of machine learning with the functional expertise of modern software development and engineering roles to help you develop production-ready skills.

Syllabus
- Week 1: Neural Architecture Search
- Learn how to effectively search for the best model that will scale for various serving needs while constraining model complexity and hardware requirements.
- Week 2: Model Resource Management Techniques
- Learn how to optimize and manage the compute, storage, and I/O resources your model needs in production environments during its entire lifecycle.
- Week 3: High-Performance Modeling
- Implement distributed processing and parallelism techniques to make the most of your computational resources for training your models efficiently.
- Week 4: Model Analysis
- Use model performance analysis to debug and remediate your model and measure robustness, fairness, and stability.
- Week 5: Interpretability
- Learn about model interpretability - the key to explaining your model’s inner workings to laypeople and expert audiences and how it promotes fairness and helps address regulatory and legal requirements for different use cases.
