DEEPaaS API: a REST API for Machine Learning and Deep Learning models

Abstract

Arguably, Python is one of the most widely used programming languages in data analytics, data mining, artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning (Nguyen et al., 2019). DEEPaaS API is a Python package that provides a REST API (Fielding, 2000) that can be used to easily expose the underlying model functionality over HTTP. Developers can plug their applications into DEEPaaS API with minimal requirements and modifications, allowing for easier interaction with the underlying functionality, both for training, validating and testing.
