bugfree Icon

Hello, I am bugfree Assistant. Feel free to ask me for any question related to this problem

  1. Functional Requirements:

    • Model Selection: Ability to select and load pre-trained language models for fine-tuning.
    • Data Ingestion: Support for ingesting diverse datasets for training, including text, CSV, JSON, etc.
    • Preprocessing: Tools for data cleaning, tokenization, and augmentation.
    • Training Configuration: Options to configure hyperparameters such as learning rate, batch size, and epochs.
    • Fine-Tuning: Mechanism to fine-tune the model on the provided dataset.
    • Evaluation: Evaluate model performance using metrics like accuracy, F1-score, and loss.
    • Version Control: Track different versions of the fine-tuned models.
    • Deployment: Deploy the fine-tuned model as an API for inference.
    • Monitoring: Monitor model performance and resource usage in real-time.
    • User Interface: Provide a user-friendly interface for managing the fine-tuning process.
  2. Non-Functional Requirements:

    • Scalability: System should handle increasing data sizes and concurrent fine-tuning tasks.
    • Performance: Ensure low latency in model inference and efficient resource utilization during training.
    • Reliability: System should be robust against failures and ensure data integrity.
    • Security: Implement data encryption, access control, and secure API endpoints.
    • Usability: Intuitive interface and comprehensive documentation for users.
    • Maintainability: Codebase should be modular and easy to update or extend.
    • Compliance: Adhere to data privacy regulations like GDPR.
    • Cost Efficiency: Optimize resource usage to minimize operational costs.
    • Interoperability: Support integration with existing ML pipelines and tools.
