This book is ideal for students, data scientists, machine learning engineers, and analysts who want to master LightGBM with practical application in corporate environments. You will learn how to prepare data, optimize hyperparameters, and integrate models with leading market tools such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, MLflow, Optuna, and Docker. Explore concepts like boosting, leaf-wise tree growth, GPU acceleration, automated tuning, and cross-platform deployment.
Includes:
• Installation and configuration of LightGBM on Windows, Linux, and cloud environments
• Dataset preparation using Pandas, NumPy, and integration with Spark
• Advanced hyperparameter optimization with Optuna and Hyperopt
• Experiment tracking and monitoring with MLflow
• Production deployment using Flask, FastAPI, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines on AWS and Azure
By the end, you will be equipped to build high-performance machine learning models ready to run in enterprise and global cloud solutions.
