Abstract
Important service-level constraints in machine learning (ML) services must be communicated and agreed among relevant stakeholders. Due to the lack of studies and support, it is unclear which and how ML-specific attributes and constraints should be specified and assured in service contracts for ML services. This paper examines service contracts in the three stakeholders engagement model of ML services. We identify key ML-specific attributes that should be specified and monitored for the ML service provider, ML consumer and ML infrastructure provider. Based on that, we propose QoA4ML (Quality of Analytics for ML) as a framework to support ML-specific service contracts. QoA4ML includes an ML-specific service contract specification, monitoring utilities and a contract observability service. To illustrate the usefulness of QoA4ML, we present real-world examples for contract terms and policies, monitoring and contract evaluation with dynamic ML services in predictive maintenance.Description
