How do we mitigate noise in our ML pipeline?

Robust ML pipelines treat noise as a first-class citizen.
Andrew Ng

How It Works:

Implement data validation rules, outlier filters, and noise-robust algorithms; leverage techniques like data augmentation or denoising autoencoders.

Key Benefits:

  • Stable training: Prevents erratic learning.
  • Consistent results: Minimizes performance variance.
  • Reduced manual cleanup: Automated filters catch most errors.

Real-World Use Cases:

  • Audio processing: Denoise recordings before transcription.
  • Financial data: Smooth irregular trading spikes in time series.
