AI and machine learning

scikit-learn development

Classical machine learning, and very often the model that should have been tried before anything larger.

When we reach for it

Tabular data, classification and regression on structured records — where a gradient-boosted tree quietly beats a neural network. Most business problems arrive as rows and columns, and most of them are solved here for a fraction of what the alternative costs to train and serve.

When we would argue against it

Unstructured text, images and audio. That is where deep learning earns its cost. It is, however, the fastest way to find out whether you needed deep learning at all.

What it looks like in delivery

A baseline built first, so any more complicated model has something honest to beat. Building it first also surfaces the data problems while they are still cheap to fix, and often the baseline turns out to be good enough to ship — a better outcome than a model nobody can maintain.

Where this appears on the site

Nothing on this site names it yet

We work in scikit-learn, and no case study or service page currently published on this site prints it in its stack. Rather than describe an engagement you cannot check, this space stays empty until one does. Ask us and we will talk you through it directly.
