create-experiment

Description

Creates an SageMaker experiment . An experiment is a collection of trials that are observed, compared and evaluated as a group. A trial is a set of steps, called trial components , that produce a machine learning model.

The goal of an experiment is to determine the components that produce the best model. Multiple trials are performed, each one isolating and measuring the impact of a change to one or more inputs, while keeping the remaining inputs constant.

When you use Amazon SageMaker Studio or the Amazon SageMaker Python SDK, all experiments, trials, and trial components are automatically tracked, logged, and indexed. When you use the AWS SDK for Python (Boto), you must use the logging APIs provided by the SDK.

You can add tags to experiments, trials, trial components and then use the Search API to search for the tags.

To add a description to an experiment, specify the optional Description parameter. To add a description later, or to change the description, call the UpdateExperiment API.

To get a list of all your experiments, call the ListExperiments API. To view an experiment’s properties, call the DescribeExperiment API. To get a list of all the trials associated with an experiment, call the ListTrials API. To create a trial call the CreateTrial API.

Synopsis

  create-experiment
--experiment-name <value>
[--display-name <value>]
[--description <value>]
[--tags <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--experiment-name (string)

The name of the experiment. The name must be unique in your AWS account and is not case-sensitive.

--display-name (string)

The name of the experiment as displayed. The name doesn’t need to be unique. If you don’t specify DisplayName , the value in ExperimentName is displayed.

--description (string)

The description of the experiment.

--tags (list)

A list of tags to associate with the experiment. You can use Search API to search on the tags.

(structure)

Describes a tag.

Key -> (string)

The tag key.

Value -> (string)

The tag value.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Output

ExperimentArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the experiment.
