Core
Synthetic Data GenerationSynthetic data is training or eval data produced by a model, a simulator, or a program rather than collected from the real world, used to bootstrap labels, cover rare cases, and distill a larger model into a smaller one. Its value hinges on quality, diversity, and the absence of leakage between your generator and your eval. Applied AI interviews probe it because candidates reach for it as a free fix and miss the failure modes: distribution mismatch, eval contamination, and model collapse from training on a model's own outputs.📊 Evaluation & ML FoundationsSign in
Core
The Computer Vision PipelineA production CV system is a chain: ingest and version images, preprocess and augment, fine-tune a pretrained backbone, attach a task head, evaluate with sliced metrics, post-process, then serve and monitor. The invariant that separates working systems from broken ones is train/serve consistency: the exact resize, color space, and normalization must match at training and inference. Applied AI interviews probe this because most CV failures live at the preprocessing seam, not in the architecture.📊 Evaluation & ML FoundationsSign in
