Description
Optimize system performance with practical experimentation techniques used by engineers in competitive industries. Experimentation for Engineers: From A/B testing to Bayesian optimization provides a toolbox of methods for evaluating new features and fine-tuning parameters. You'll learn how to design, run, and analyze A/B tests, break feedback loops caused by periodic retraining of ML models, and increase experimentation rate with multi-armed bandits. The book also covers advanced techniques used in industries such as finance and social media, enabling you to evaluate changes and ensure testing doesn't undermine business metrics. By the time you're done, you'll be able to seamlessly deploy experiments in production while avoiding common pitfalls. A free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats is included with your purchase of the print book.
