Module 1: Experiment Tracking (The Lab Notebook)

📚 Module 1: Experiment Tracking

Course ID: OPS-601
Subject: The Lab Notebook

In the lab, a scientist doesn’t just mix chemicals and hope. They write everything down. In ML, we use Experiment Tracking (like MLflow) to do the same.


🏗️ Step 1: The Tracker (The “Logbook”)

An Experiment Tracker automatically saves:

  1. Parameters: Your settings.
  2. Metrics: Your scores.
  3. Artifacts: Your files.

🧩 The Analogy: The Fitness App

Imagine an app that tracks your runs (Shoes, Route, Heart rate, Map). Because it tracks everything, you know exactly why you ran faster today.
