• Abstract: The accelerated adoption of AI-based software demands precise development guidelines to guarantee reliability, scalability, and ethical compliance. MLOps (Machine Learning and Operations) guidelines have emerged as the principal reference in this field, paving the way for the development of high-level automated tools and applications. Despite the introduction of MLOps guidelines, there is still a degree of skepticism surrounding their implementation, with a gradual adoption rate across many companies. In certain instances, a lack of awareness about MLOps has resulted in organizations adopting similar approaches unintentionally, frequently without a comprehensive understanding of the associated best practices and principles. The objective of this study is to gain insight into the actual adoption of MLOps (or comparable) guidelines in different business contexts. To this end, we surveyed practitioners representing a range of business environments to understand how MLOps is adopted and perceived in their companies. The results of this survey also shed light on other pertinent aspects related to the advantages and challenges of these guidelines, the learning curve associated with them, and the future trends that can be derived from this information. This study aims to provide deeper insight into MLOps and its impact on the next phase of innovation in machine learning. By doing so, we aim to lay the foundation for more efficient, reliable, and creative AI applications in the future.

  In recent years, AI researchers and practitioners have introduced principles and guidelines to build systems that make reliable and trustworthy decisions. In practice, a fundamental challenge arises when the system needs to be operationalized and deployed to evolve and operate in real-life environments continuously. To address this challenge, Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) have emerged as a potential recipe for standardizing ML solutions in deployment.

  We explore the use of historical expert decisions as a rich source of information that can be combined with observed outcomes to narrow the construct gap. We propose an influence function-based methodology to estimate expert consistency indirectly when each case in the data is assessed by a single expert. Our empirical evaluation, using simulations in a clinical setting and real-world data from the child welfare domain, indicates that the proposed approach successfully narrows the construct gap.
