• Abstract: This article presents an experiment focused on optimizing the MLOps (Machine Learning Operations) process, a crucial aspect of efficiently implementing machine learning projects. The objective is to identify patterns and insights to enhance the MLOps workflow, considering its iterative and interdependent nature in real-world model development scenarios. The experiment involves a comprehensive MLOps workflow, covering essential phases like problem definition, data acquisition, data preparation, model development, model deployment, monitoring, management, scalability, and governance and compliance. Practical tips and recommendations are derived from the results, emphasizing proactive planning and continuous improvement for the MLOps workflow. The experimental investigation was strategically integrated within a real-world ML project which followed essential phases of the MLOps process in a production environment, handling large-scale structured data. A systematic tracking approach was employed to document revisits to specific phases from a main phase under focus, capturing the reasons for such revisits. By constructing a matrix to quantify the degree of overlap between phases, the study unveils the dynamic and iterative nature of the MLOps workflow. The resulting data provides visual representations of the MLOps process's interdependencies and iterative characteristics within the experimental framework, offering valuable insights for optimizing the workflow and making informed decisions in real-world scenarios. This analysis contributes to enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of machine learning projects through an improved MLOps process. Keywords: MLOps, Machine Learning Operations, Optimization, Experimental Analysis, Iterative Process, Pattern Identification.

  Multi-task learning (MTL) is a paradigm that simultaneously learns multiple tasks by sharing information at different levels.

We achieve this by incorporating a feedback mechanism into MTL models, where the output of one task serves as a hidden feature for another task.
