Supported machine learning providers

Supported machine learning providers

Watson Machine Learning and many third-party machine learning providers are supported for machine learning model evaluations.

Use one of these supported machine learning providers to perform payload logging, feedback logging, and to measure performance accuracy, runtime bias detection, explainability, and auto-debias function as part of your model evaluation.

Support for multiple machine learning engines

You can provision multiple machine learning engines when you configure machine learning model evalations or use the Python SDK.

Adding providers for machine learning model evaluations

  1. From the Configure configuration icon is shown tab, click Add machine learning provider.
  2. Select the provider you want to add.
  3. Enter the required information, such as credentials, and click Save.

Changing or updating details for machine learning providers

Click the tile menu the tile menu icon icon and then click View & edit details.

Adding machine learning providers by using the Python SDK

You can add more than one machine learning engine for model evaluations by using the Python API wos_client.service_providers.add method.

IBM Watson Machine Learning

To add the IBM Watson Machine Learning machine learning engine, run the following command:

WML_CREDENTIALS = {
                   "url": "https://us-south.ml.cloud.ibm.com",
                   "apikey": IBM CLOUD_API_KEY
}
 
wos_client.service_providers.add(
        name=SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME,
        description=SERVICE_PROVIDER_DESCRIPTION,
        service_type=ServiceTypes.WATSON_MACHINE_LEARNING,
        deployment_space_id = WML_SPACE_ID,
        operational_space_id = "production",
        credentials=WMLCredentialsCloud(
            apikey=CLOUD_API_KEY,      ## use `apikey=IAM_TOKEN` if using IAM_TOKEN to initiate client
            url=WML_CREDENTIALS["url"],
            instance_id=None
        ),
        background_mode=False
    ).result

Microsoft Azure ML Studio

To add the Azure ML Studio machine learning engine, run the following command:

AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS = {
    "client_id": "",
    "client_secret": "",
    "subscription_id": "",
    "tenant": ""
}
 
wos_client.service_providers.add(
        name=SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME,
        description=SERVICE_PROVIDER_DESCRIPTION,
        service_type=ServiceTypes.AZURE_MACHINE_LEARNING,
        #deployment_space_id = WML_SPACE_ID,
        #operational_space_id = "production",
        credentials=AzureCredentials(
            subscription_id= AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['subscription_id'],
            client_id = AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['client_id'],
            client_secret= AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['client_secret'],
            tenant = AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['tenant']
        ),
        background_mode=False
    ).result

Amazon SageMaker

To add the AWS Sagemaker machine learning engine, run the following command:

SAGEMAKER_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS = {
                   'access_key_id':””,
                   'secret_access_key':””,
                   'region': '}
 
wos_client.service_providers.add(
        name="AWS",
        description="AWS Service Provider",
        service_type=ServiceTypes.AMAZON_SAGEMAKER,
        credentials=SageMakerCredentials(
            access_key_id=SAGEMAKER_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['access_key_id'],
            secret_access_key=SAGEMAKER_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['secret_access_key'],
            region=SAGEMAKER_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['region']
        ),
        background_mode=False
    ).result

Microsoft Azure ML Service

To add the Azure ML Service machine learning engine, run the following command:

service_type = "azure_machine_learning_service"
added_service_provider_result = wos_client.service_providers.add(
        name=SERVICE_PROVIDER_NAME,
        description=SERVICE_PROVIDER_DESCRIPTION,
        service_type = service_type,
        credentials=AzureCredentials(
            subscription_id= AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['subscription_id'],
            client_id = AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['client_id'],
            client_secret= AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['client_secret'],
            tenant = AZURE_ENGINE_CREDENTIALS['tenant']
        ),
        background_mode=False
    ).result

Producing a list of machine learning providers

To view a list of all the bindings, run the list method:

client.service_providers.list()
