Online A/B Testing of Real-Time Event Detection Systems - David Tagliamonti | Stanford MLSys #93

Episode 93 of the Stanford MLSys Seminar Series!

Online A/B Testing of Real-Time Event Detection Systems
Speaker: David Tagliamonti

Abstract:
AI models increasingly impact our day-to-day lives. For teams building AI-powered products, the first version of a model is only the first step on a long journey. The ability to quickly iterate on models is key to fast product development and better user experience. A/B testing is one way to test new models before rolling them out. In this talk, we discuss the unique challenges of A/B testing real-time event detection systems, particularly in mission-critical environments, and a specific approach to doing so. Finally, we reflect on our experience using this approach in production for several years.
