The Machine Learning HubUNDER DEVELOPMENTIntroductionThemachine learning hubis an open source project
hosted ongithubaimed at easily
sharingpre-built machine learning
models. The models are accessed
and managed using themlcommand from themlhubpackage designed
to install the model and run a demonstration within 5 minutes. Each
model has been tested on Ubuntu (GNU/Linux).Visit therepository indexonmlhub.aiwhere the models themselves can be browsed.Quick StartThe command line interface can be installed usingPyPi:$ pip3 install mlhubOnce installed you will be able to run the sample 'rain' model
assuming that you have the free and open sourceR statistical software
packageinstalled. The TL;DR version is
below. Note that you type the commandml ...and that everything from
the#to the end of the line is ignored (it's a comment):$ ml install   rain # Install the model named 'rain'.
$ ml demo      rain # Run the demonstration of the model
$ ml display   rain # Graphical display of pre-built model.The following commands are available and below is a brief description of
each command:$ ml                # Show a usage message.
$ ml available      # List of pre-buld models on the MLHub.
$ ml installed      # List of pre-built models installed locally
$ ml install   rain # Install the model named 'rain'.
$ ml readme    rain # View background information about the model.
$ ml configure rain # Install required dependencies.
$ ml commands  rain # List of commands supported by the model.
$ ml demo      rain # Run the demonstration of the model
$ ml print     rain # Textual summary of the model.
$ ml display   rain # Graphical display of pre-built model.
$ ml score     rain # Run model on your own data.Different model packages will have different dependencies and these will
be installed by theconfigurecommand.Quick Start: Azure DSVMA particularly attractive and simple way to get started with exploring
the mlhub functionality is to fire up aUbuntu Data Science Virtual
Machine(DSVM) on Azure for as little as USD10 per
month for quite a small server or USD90 for a reasonable one. You can
get free credit (USD200) from Microsoft totrial the
DSVM.Using this virtual machine will save a lot of time compared with setting
up your own machine with the required dependencies, which of course you
can do if you wish as all the dependencies are open source.To set up the virtual machine, with an Azure subscription log in to theportaland add a new Data Science Virtual
Machine for Linux (Ubuntu). You need to provide a name (for the virtual
machine), a user name and a password, and then create a new resource
group and give it a name, and finally choose a location. Go with all the
defaults for everything else, except choose a size to suit the budget
(B1s is cheap though a D2s is a better interactive experience). Note
that you are only charged whilst the machine is fired up so USD90 per
month is no where near what you will spend if you only fire up the
server when you need.Once the DSVM is set up go to its Overview page and click on DNS name
Configure and provide a name by which to refer to the server publicly
(e.g., myml.westus2.cloudapp.azure.com).We now have a server ready to showcase the pre-built Machine Learning
models. There are several options to connect to the server but a
recommended one is to useX2Gowhich supports
Linux, Windows, and Mac. Install it and point it to your server (e.g.,
myml.westus2.cloudapp.azure.com) in the setup.Connect to the DSVM. Close the Firefox window that pops up. Click on the
terminal icon down the bottom, and you are ready to go:$ pip install mlhub
$ ml
$ ml availableetc.Pre-Built Model ArchivesA model is a zip file archived as .mlm files and hosted in a repository.
The public repository ismlhub.ai. Themlcommand
can install the pre-built model locally, ready to run a demo, to print
and display the model, and to score new data using the model. Some
models provide ability to retrain the model with user provided data.Contributing Models to ML HubAnyone is welcome to contribute a pre-built model package to ML Hub.
Please submit a pull request throughgithub.Installing Pip3On Ubuntu this is as simple as:$ sudo apt install python3-pipAlternative pip InstallDepending on your setup of pip, you may need to use:$ pip3 install mlhubThe executable may be placed into~/.local/binwhich will need to be
on your path. Edit your shell startup which is either.profileor.bashrc, etc:PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"Alternative InstallA tar.gz containing the mlhub package and the command line interface
is available asmlhub_1.6.7.tar.gzwithin
thedistribution folderof the MLHub.To install from the tar.gz file:$ wget https://mlhub.ai/dist/mlhub_1.6.7.tar.gz
$ pip install mlhub_1.6.7.tar.gz

$ cd mlhub
$ python3 setup.py install --userContributionsThe open source mlhub command line tool (ml) and sample models are being
hosted ongithuband contributions to
both the command line tool and contributions of new open source
pre-built machine learning models are most welcome. Feel free to submit
