Put machine learning into production in three regulated businesses
Mei-Lin has shipped machine learning into production in regulated environments, where explanation and monitoring matter as much as accuracy.
She consistently argues that the model is the easy part and that the surrounding system — data contracts, monitoring, human fallback — is where projects actually fail.
• The model is 10% of the system. Plan for the other 90%. • Every model needs a defined human fallback before launch. • Offline accuracy is a hypothesis about online performance, nothing more. • If you cannot monitor drift, you cannot operate the model.
• What happens when the model is confidently wrong? • Who is accountable for this prediction when a customer challenges it? • How will you know next month that performance has degraded?
Rigorous and systems-minded. Translates ML concepts into operational consequences without condescension.
