Building a More Inclusive Web: How to Create Fair Recommendation Algorithms
Recommendation systems have become an integral part of the online experience, influencing what we see, read, and buy. However, these systems have been shown to perpetuate and amplify biases, leading to unfair and inequitable outcomes for certain groups of users. In this talk, we will explore the importance of fairness in recommendation systems and discuss strategies for designing and implementing systems that promote equity.
We will examine real-world examples of bias in recommendation systems and consider the ethical implications of these biases. Finally, we will discuss the role that technologists and other stakeholders can play in creating a more equitable web through the design and use of fair recommendation systems
Destroy the dilemma - REST vs gRPC during model serving using TensorFlow Serving
Transitioning from proof-of-concept to deployment is a change many machine learning models struggle to make. While most industrial machine learning (ML) projects target the development of highly performant and scalable ML systems in production, it is often difficult to automate and operationalise these systems so that they work perfectly.
In this talk, we will walk you through the two popular architectures - REST and gRPC using Python, docker and TensorFlow Serving which can be used to deploy your machine learning models in production. We will also discuss the pros and cons of the two architectures, solving your dilemma and ensuring a smooth transition of your models from proof-of-concept to production.
Build your backend using FastAPI
In this talk we will discuss about building the backend for a web-application using Python and FastAPI.
FastAPI is a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework used for building APIs with Python. The session will highlight performing simple CRUD operations using the different endpoints of the API and testing them using pytest.
It will focus not only on the concepts but also emphasise on some of the software engineering best practices (patterns and anti-patterns) required to excel in web-development.
