AWS Certified AI Practitioner (AIF-C01) · Objective 1.2
Detecting feature drift
1.2Standard
Production feature units and distributions changed.
Investigate model degradation.
Choose two checks.
Hint 1: Focus on the requirement
Monitor feature distributions and data contracts over time, and relate changes to model versions and delayed labels before retraining.
Hint 2: Key terms
Review feature drift and data contracts.
Feature drift
A change in the distribution or meaning of a model input feature over time.
Data contract
An agreement describing input fields, types, units, ranges, missingness, and update timing.
Unit change
A change in the measurement scale or unit used for a feature.
Drift correlation
Comparing a feature change with model versions, performance, and operational events.
× Incorrect
Compare distributions, units, ranges, missingness, and categories with training data, and correlate changes with model version, performance, and label delay.
Detailed explanation
A
CorrectCorrelate changes with model version, performance, and label delay over time
Root causes can be separated.
B
CorrectCompare distributions, units, ranges, missingness, and categories by feature
Input changes can be identified.
C
IncorrectIgnore a unit change when the distribution looks similar
The feature meaning can change.
D
IncorrectRetrain every model after one feature changes
Impact has not been established.
