Linear, probabilistic, neighbor & margin models
Support tickets need explainable routing under a 15 ms latency budget.
Opening production brief
A measurable problem, before a model.
regularization, log odds, Bayes rule, feature scaling with version, owner, event time, and availability contracts.
Support tickets need explainable routing under a 15 ms latency budget. Every solution must state latency, cost, capacity, and fallback limits.
Offline evidence plus a deployable resolution: A justified baseline across regression, Naive Bayes, kNN, and SVM.
Frame and baseline
Turn the production problem into explicit data, metric, and baseline contracts.

Logistic regression, odds, and calibration
Use logistic regression, odds, and calibration to move the classical baselines production brief toward a defensible release.
