ML engineering pipelines
Feature prep, batch inference, model-serving hooks, and production ML workflow glue.
How to Define Dagster ML Assets in Python
Define a chain of Dagster software-defined assets that compute raw features, normalized features, and predictions for an ML pipeline.
from dagster import asset
@asset
def raw_features():
return {"sepal_length": [5.1, 4.9, 6.2], "sepal_width": [3.5, 3.0, 3.4]}
@asset
def normalized_features(raw_features):
values = raw_features["sepal_length"]
mean = sum(values) / len(values)
std = (sum((x - mean) ** 2 for x in values) / len(values…
How to Run Batch Predictions with a Mock Model in Python
Build a lightweight mock model class and run predictions across a batch of samples, returning results as a plain Python list.
import numpy as np
class MockModel:
def __init__(self, weights):
self.weights = np.array(weights)
def predict(self, X):
return X @ self.weights
def predict_batch(model, batch):
"""Run predictions for a batch of samples and return results as a list."""
return model.predict(np.array(ba…
How to Save and Load a Mock Model with Pickle and joblib in Python
Serialize a custom machine learning model to a .joblib file with joblib.dump, reload it, and run a prediction with joblib.load.
import joblib
from pathlib import Path
class MockModel:
def __init__(self, weights):
self.weights = weights
def predict(self, features):
return sum(w * f for w, f in zip(self.weights, features))
def save_model_pickle(model, filepath):
with open(filepath, "wb") as f:
joblib.dump(…
