What is this?
Drift detection compares current feature or prediction distributions against training baselines.
Why should you care?
AIPredict fraud model trained pre-holiday may degrade when transaction patterns shift.
See it live — copy this example
Use a .NET console or Web API project with Microsoft.ML. Run dotnet run after pasting.
var baseline = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<MetricSnapshot>(File.ReadAllText("models/fraud-v12.metrics.json"));
var current = EvaluateProductionSample(recentRows, model);
var aucDrop = baseline.AreaUnderRocCurve - current.AreaUnderRocCurve;
if (aucDrop > 0.05)
await alerts.SendAsync($"Drift: AUC dropped {aucDrop:F3} vs champion");
What happened?
- Store champion metrics at train time; re-evaluate labeled sample from production; alert on metric delta.
- Follow the steps below — typing the code yourself is the fastest way to learn.
Practice next
- Save baseline metrics.json.
- Eval recent labeled sample.
- Alert if AUC drop > threshold.
- Track feature mean shift on Amount.
- Auto-open retrain ticket on drift.
Remember
Baseline vs current metrics. Labeled prod sample. Threshold alerts.
AIPredict fraud drift
Post-holiday AUC falls 0.07 vs baseline.
Outcome: Retrain job triggered same day.
