Accelerating Human-in-the-loop Machine Learning: Challenges and Opportunities
share
Development of machine learning (ML) workflows is a tedious process of iterative experimentation: developers repeatedly make changes to workflows until the desired accuracy is attained. We describe our vision for a "human-in-the-loop" ML system that accelerates this process: by intelligently tracking changes and intermediate results over time, such a system can enable rapid iteration, quick responsive feedback, introspection and debugging, and background execution and automation. We finally describe Helix, our preliminary attempt at such a system that has already led to speedups of up to 10x on typical iterative workflows against competing systems.
