 > id='[d]-data-source-and-data-preparator' class='header-anchors'>[D] Data 
 > Source and Data Preparator</h3><p>Data Source reads data from an input

 > the data and forwards it to the algorithm for mo
 del training.</p><h3 id='[a]-algorithm' class='header-anchors'>[A] 
Algorithm</h3><p>The Algorithm component includes the Machine Learning 
algorithm, and the settings of its parameters, determines how a predictive 
model is constructed.</p><h3 id='[s]-serving' class='header-anchors'>[S] 
Serving</h3><p>The Serving component takes prediction <em>queries</em> and 
returns prediction results. If the engine has multiple algorithms, Serving will 
combine the results into one. Additionally, business-specific logic can be 
added in Serving to further customize the final returned results.</p><h3 
id='[e]-evaluation-metrics' class='header-anchors'>[E] Evaluation 
Metrics</h3><p>An Evaluation Metric quantifies prediction accuracy with a 
numerical score. It can be used for comparing algorithms or algorithm parameter 
settings.</p> <blockquote> <p>Apache PredictionIO helps you modularize these 
components so you can build, for example, several Serving components for an 
Engine. You will be able to choose 
 which one to be deployed when you create an Engine.</p></blockquote> <p><img

id='the-roles-of-an-engine' class='header-anchors'>The Roles of an 
Engine</h2><p>The main functions of an engine are:</p> <ul> <li>Train a model 
using the training data and be deployed as a web service</li> <li>Respond to 
prediction query in real-time</li> </ul> <p>An engine puts all DASE components 
into a deployable state by specifying:</p> <ul> <li><p>One Data Source</p></li> 
<li><p>One Data Preparator</p></li> <li><p>One or more Algorithm(s)</p></li> 
<li><p>One Serving</p></li> </ul> <div class="alert-message info"><p>If more 
than one algorithm is specified, each of their model prediction results will be 
passed to Serving for ensembling.</p></div><p>Each Engine processes data and 
constructs predictive models independently. Therefore, every engine serves its 
own set of prediction results. For example, you may deploy two engi
 nes for your mobile application: one for recommending news to users and 
another one for suggesting new friends to users.</p><h3

D-A-S-E components:</p><h3 id='[d]-data-source-and-data-preparator' 
class='header-anchors'>[D] Data Source and Data Preparator</h3><p>Data Source 
reads data from an input source and transforms it into a desired format. Data 
Preparator preprocesses the data and forwards it to the algorithm for model 
training.</p><h3 id='[a]-algorithm' class='header-anchors'>[A] 
Algorithm</h3><p>The
  Algorithm component includes the Machine Learning algorithm, and the settings 
of its parameters, determines how a predictive model is constructed.</p><h3 
id='[s]-serving' class='header-anchors'>[S] Serving</h3><p>The Serving 
component takes prediction <em>queries</em> and returns prediction results. If 
the engine has multiple algorithms, Serving will combine the results into one. 
Additionally, business-specific logic can be added in Serving to further 
customize the final returned results.</p><h3 id='[e]-evaluation-metrics' 
class='header-anchors'>[E] Evaluation Metrics</h3><p>An Evaluation Metric 
quantifies prediction accuracy with a numerical score. It can be used for 
comparing algorithms or algorithm parameter settings.</p> <blockquote> 
<p>Apache PredictionIO helps you modularize these components so you can build, 
for example, several Serving components for an Engine. You will be able to 
choose which one to be deployed when you create an Engine.</p></blockquote>

id='the-roles-of-an-engine' class='header-anchors'>The Roles of an 
Engine</h2><p>The main functions of an engine are:</p> <ul> <li>Train a model 
using the training data and be deployed as a web service</li> <li>Respond to 
prediction query in real-time</li> </ul> <p>An engine puts all DASE components 
into a deployable state by specifying:</p> <ul> <li><p>One Data Source</p></li> 
<li><p>One Data Preparator</p></li> <li><p>One or more Algorithm(s)</p></li> 
<li><p>One Serving</p></li> </ul> <div class="alert-message info"><p>If more 
than one algorithm is specified, each of their model prediction results will be 
passed to Serving for ensembling.</p></div><p>Each Engine processes data and 
constructs predictive models independently. Therefore, every engine serves its 
own set of prediction results. For example, you may deploy two engines for your 
mobile application: one for recommending news to users and another one for
  suggesting new friends to users.</p><h3 id='training-a-model---the-dase-view'
