What are the advantages and disadvantages of different cross validation ML Model

 

Cross-Validation TechniqueAdvantagesDisadvantages
K-Fold Cross-Validation- Provides a robust estimate of model performance by averaging over multiple folds.<br>- Useful for a wide range of dataset sizes and complexities.<br>- Each data point is used for both training and validation.<br>- Allows for a balance between training and validation data.- Computationally expensive for large datasets or complex models.<br>- May not perform well with imbalanced datasets.<br>- Randomness in fold creation can lead to variability in results.
Stratified K-Fold Cross-Validation- Preserves the class distribution in each fold, making it suitable for imbalanced datasets.<br>- Reduces the risk of obtaining folds with very different class distributions.<br>- Provides a more reliable estimate of model performance for classification tasks.- Can be computationally expensive for large datasets or complex models.<br>- May not be as suitable for regression tasks or non-classification problems.
Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation (LOOCV)- Provides an unbiased estimate of model performance since each sample serves as a validation set once.<br>- Useful for small datasets where the computational cost is not prohibitive.<br>- Minimizes data splitting, which can be advantageous for limited data scenarios.- Extremely computationally expensive for large datasets.<br>- Prone to overfitting with complex models due to small training sets.<br>- May lead to high variance in results due to a single data point validation.
Time Series Cross-Validation- Specifically designed for time series data, preserving temporal order.<br>- Suitable for forecasting and sequential data analysis.<br>- Provides a more realistic estimate of model performance for time-dependent tasks.- Can be challenging to implement correctly with irregular or missing time series data.<br>- Requires careful consideration of window sizes and temporal dynamics.<br>- May not be as applicable to non-time series data.
Leave-P-Out Cross-Validation- Offers a balance between LOOCV and K-Fold CV by allowing you to specify the number of samples to leave out.<br>- Provides a compromise between computational cost and bias/variance trade-off.<br>- Useful for medium-sized datasets with limited computational resources.- The choice of the "p" parameter can impact results, requiring experimentation.<br>- Performance depends on finding an appropriate trade-off between bias and variance.

What is the difference between Elastic and Enterprise Redis w.r.t "Hybrid Query" capabilities

  We'll explore scenarios involving nested queries, aggregations, custom scoring, and hybrid queries that combine multiple search criteria. 1. Nested Queries ElasticSearch Example: ElasticSearch supports nested documents, which allows for querying on nested fields with complex conditions. Query: Find products where the product has a review with a rating of 5 and the review text contains "excellent". { "query": { "nested": { "path": "reviews", "query": { "bool": { "must": [ { "match": { "reviews.rating": 5 } }, { "match": { "reviews.text": "excellent" } } ] } } } } } Redis Limitation: Redis does not support nested documents natively. While you can store nested structures in JSON documents using the RedisJSON module, querying these nested structures with complex condi...

Training LLM model requires more GPU RAM than storing same LLM

Storing an LLM model and training the same model both require memory, but the memory requirements for training are typically higher than just storing the model. Let's dive into the details: Memory Requirement for Storing the Model: When you store an LLM model, you need to save the weights of the model parameters. Each parameter is typically represented by a 32-bit float (4 bytes). The memory requirement for storing the model weights is calculated by multiplying the number of parameters by 4 bytes. For example, if you have a model with 1 billion parameters, the memory requirement for storing the model weights alone would be 4 GB (4 bytes * 1 billion parameters). Memory Requirement for Training: During the training process, additional components use GPU memory in addition to the model weights. These components include optimizer states, gradients, activations, and temporary variables needed by the training process. These components can require additional memory beyond just storing th...
