Chapter 13: Integrating Machine Learning Models into APIs
Machine Learning (ML) models can be integrated into APIs to make them more intelligent and dynamic. This integration allows applications to use ML models to predict, analyze, and make decisions based on data.
1. Train your ML model: Use a suitable ML algorithm to train your model on a dataset.
2. Save the trained model: Once the model is trained, save it using a library like joblib or pickle in Python.
3. Create an API: Use a web framework like Flask or Django in Python to create an API.
4. Load the ML model: Load the saved model into your API using the same library you used to save it.
5. Create an endpoint: Create an endpoint in your API that uses the loaded model to make predictions.
1. Real-time predictions: APIs can provide real-time predictions using ML models.
2. Scalability: APIs can handle multiple requests at a time, making it possible to use ML models at scale.
3. Accessibility: APIs can be accessed from anywhere, making it easy to use ML models from any application or platform.
