⚠️ Data Transformation; When AI Systems Fail ⚠️ 
One of the major reasons AI systems fail is not due to a lack of performance of the models. But mostly a missunderstanding of how data transformation works. Let's resolve that. 

🛒 Take the e-commerce scenario of my diagram: 
From the Data side; 
→ Current cart value (125) 
→→ This is only available at request time 
→→→ Transformation = On-demand
------
→ Historical Data (count: 5, total spend: 1000) 
→→ Required for multiple models 
→→→ Transformation = Independent to the model

From the Model side;
🔮 For inference: 
Current Cart + Historical Data →  Model-Dependent.
🤼 For Training: 
Historical Data for a specific Model →  Model-Dependent. 

This Taxonomy for Data Transformations in AI systems (link below) is critical, we have;
1️⃣ Model-Independent Transformations 
• Reusable across models 
• Think aggregations, windowed counts, joins 
• Stored in feature stores

2️⃣ Model-Dependent Transformations 
• Specific to one model 
• For feature encoding, normalization
• Applied in both training and inference

3️⃣ On-Demand Transformations 
• Require real-time data 
• Used in online inference 
• Can be backfilled for training

Why this matters:
- Prevents training-inference skew
- Enables data reuse across multiple models
- Optimizes storage and compute

News from Hopsworks 🗞️

Trouble getting started on your Hopsworks journey? This week, we share a few resources to help you become an ML and AI Lakehouse pro!

In our 5-minute interview series we’ve met with several MLOps and ML advocates telling us about their experiences and contributions to the field. In one episode Paul Iusztin told us about his idea of how to master the fundamentals of MLOps in a fast paced field like AI. 

Watch all interviews here 👉 https://bit.ly/3X37gPq

This is a visual blueprint to create an LLM, End-to-End System using the FTI Framework, based on one of the many content and talks by Jim Dowling during this year. 

And this might be a bit daunting, so, what is in the diagram here?

Over the summer we’ve been breaking down the results and concepts from our SIGMOD 2024 research paper into digestible parts. The blog series is now complete!

It’s inspiring to see what users out there do with Hopsworks! 🌟

Here is a an example that explores ML integration into an IoT application. Sean Yap used the FTI (feature, inference, training) pipeline architecture with Hopsworks feature store and model registry to integrate ML into an IoT application for predictive maintenance. Read more about the project background, view the demos and learn about the system design in Sean’s article. And don’t forget to give him a shoutout!
