Use BigQuery ML to predict penguin weight

  1. In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

    Note: If you don't plan to keep the resources that you create in this procedure, create a project instead of selecting an existing project. After you finish these steps, you can delete the project, removing all resources associated with the project.

    Go to project selector

  2. Verify that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

  3. Enable the BigQuery API.

    Enable the API

Required permissions

To create the model using BigQuery ML, you need the following IAM permissions:

To run inference, you need the following permissions:

Create a dataset

Create a BigQuery dataset to store your ML model.

Console
  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

    Go to the BigQuery page

  2. In the Explorer pane, click your project name.

  3. Click more_vert View actions > Create dataset.

  4. On the Create dataset page, do the following:

bq

To create a new dataset, use the bq mk command with the --location flag. For a full list of possible parameters, see the bq mk --dataset command reference.

  1. Create a dataset named bqml_tutorial with the data location set to US and a description of BigQuery ML tutorial dataset:

    bq --location=US mk -d \
     --description "BigQuery ML tutorial dataset." \
     bqml_tutorial

    Instead of using the --dataset flag, the command uses the -d shortcut. If you omit -d and --dataset, the command defaults to creating a dataset.

  2. Confirm that the dataset was created:

    bq ls
API

Call the datasets.insert method with a defined dataset resource.

{
  "datasetReference": {
     "datasetId": "bqml_tutorial"
  }

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up ADC for a local development environment.

Create the model

Create a linear regression model using the Analytics sample dataset for BigQuery.

SQL

You can create a linear regression model by using the CREATE MODEL statement and specifying LINEAR_REG for the model type. Creating the model includes training the model.

The following are useful things to know about the CREATE MODEL statement:

Run the query that creates your linear regression model:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

    Go to BigQuery

  2. In the query editor, run the following query:

    CREATE OR REPLACE MODEL `bqml_tutorial.penguins_model`
    OPTIONS
      (model_type='linear_reg',
      input_label_cols=['body_mass_g']) AS
    SELECT
      *
    FROM
      `bigquery-public-data.ml_datasets.penguins`
    WHERE
      body_mass_g IS NOT NULL;
  3. It takes about 30 seconds to create the penguins_model model. To see the model, go to the Explorer pane, expand the bqml_tutorial dataset, and then expand the Models folder.

BigQuery DataFrames

Before trying this sample, follow the BigQuery DataFrames setup instructions in the BigQuery quickstart using BigQuery DataFrames. For more information, see the BigQuery DataFrames reference documentation.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up ADC for a local development environment.

It takes about 30 seconds to create the model. To see the model, go to the Explorer pane, expand the bqml_tutorial dataset, and then expand the Models folder.

Get training statistics

To see the results of the model training, you can use the ML.TRAINING_INFO function, or you can view the statistics in the Google Cloud console. In this tutorial, you use the Google Cloud console.

A machine learning algorithm builds a model by examining many examples and attempting to find a model that minimizes loss. This process is called empirical risk minimization.

Loss is the penalty for a bad prediction. It is a number indicating how bad the model's prediction was on a single example. If the model's prediction is perfect, the loss is zero; otherwise, the loss is greater. The goal of training a model is to find a set of weights and biases that have low loss, on average, across all examples.

See the model training statistics that were generated when you ran the CREATE MODEL query:

  1. In the Explorer pane, expand the bqml_tutorial dataset and then the Models folder. Click penguins_model to open the model information pane.

  2. Click the Training tab, and then click Table. The results should look similar to the following:

    The Training Data Loss column represents the loss metric calculated after the model is trained on the training dataset. Since you performed a linear regression, this column shows the mean squared error value. A normal_equation optimization strategy is automatically used for this training, so only one iteration is required to converge to the final model. For more information on setting the model optimization strategy, see optimize_strategy.

Evaluate the model

After creating the model, evaluate the model's performance by using the ML.EVALUATE function or the score BigQuery DataFrames function to evaluate the predicted values generated by the model against the actual data.

SQL

For input, the ML.EVALUATE function takes the trained model and a dataset that matches the schema of the data that you used to train the model. In a production environment, you should evaluate the model on different data than the data you used to train the model. If you run ML.EVALUATE without providing input data, the function retrieves the evaluation metrics calculated during training. These metrics are calculated by using the automatically reserved evaluation dataset:

    SELECT
      *
    FROM
      ML.EVALUATE(MODEL bqml_tutorial.penguins_model);
    

Run the ML.EVALUATE query:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

    Go to BigQuery

  2. In the query editor, run the following query:

      SELECT
        *
      FROM
        ML.EVALUATE(MODEL `bqml_tutorial.penguins_model`,
          (
          SELECT
            *
          FROM
            `bigquery-public-data.ml_datasets.penguins`
          WHERE
            body_mass_g IS NOT NULL));
      
BigQuery DataFrames

Before trying this sample, follow the BigQuery DataFrames setup instructions in the BigQuery quickstart using BigQuery DataFrames. For more information, see the BigQuery DataFrames reference documentation.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up ADC for a local development environment.

The results should look similar to the following:

Because you performed a linear regression, the results include the following columns:

An important metric in the evaluation results is the R2 score. The R2 score is a statistical measure that determines if the linear regression predictions approximate the actual data. A value of 0 indicates that the model explains none of the variability of the response data around the mean. A value of 1 indicates that the model explains all the variability of the response data around the mean.

You can also look at the model's information pane in the Google Cloud console to view the evaluation metrics:

Use the model to predict outcomes

Now that you have evaluated your model, the next step is to use it to predict an outcome. You can run the ML.PREDICT function or the predict BigQuery DataFrames function on the model to predict the body mass in grams of all penguins that reside on the Biscoe Islands.

SQL

For input, the ML.PREDICT function takes the trained model and a dataset that matches the schema of the data that you used to train the model, excluding the label column.

Run the ML.PREDICT query:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

    Go to BigQuery

  2. In the query editor, run the following query:

    SELECT
    *
    FROM
    ML.PREDICT(MODEL `bqml_tutorial.penguins_model`,
      (
      SELECT
        *
      FROM
        `bigquery-public-data.ml_datasets.penguins`
      WHERE island = 'Biscoe'));
BigQuery DataFrames

Before trying this sample, follow the BigQuery DataFrames setup instructions in the BigQuery quickstart using BigQuery DataFrames. For more information, see the BigQuery DataFrames reference documentation.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up ADC for a local development environment.

The results should look similar to the following:

Explain the prediction results SQL

To understand why the model is generating these prediction results, you can use the ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT function.

ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT is an extended version of the ML.PREDICT function. ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT not only outputs prediction results, but also outputs additional columns to explain the prediction results. In practice, you can run ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT instead of ML.PREDICT. For more information, see BigQuery ML explainable AI overview.

Run the ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT query:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

Go to BigQuery

  1. In the query editor, run the following query:
SELECT
  *
FROM
  ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT(MODEL `bqml_tutorial.penguins_model`,
    (
    SELECT
      *
    FROM
      `bigquery-public-data.ml_datasets.penguins`
    WHERE island = 'Biscoe'),
    STRUCT(3 as top_k_features));
  1. The results should look similar to the following:

Note: The ML.EXPLAIN_PREDICT query outputs all the input feature columns, similar to what ML.PREDICT does. For readability purposes, only one feature column, species, is shown in the preceding figure. BigQuery DataFrames

Before trying this sample, follow the BigQuery DataFrames setup instructions in the BigQuery quickstart using BigQuery DataFrames. For more information, see the BigQuery DataFrames reference documentation.

To authenticate to BigQuery, set up Application Default Credentials. For more information, see Set up ADC for a local development environment.

For linear regression models, Shapley values are used to generate feature attribution values for each feature in the model. The output includes the top three feature attributions per row of the penguins table because top_k_features was set to 3. These attributions are sorted by the absolute value of the attribution in descending order. In all examples, the feature sex contributed the most to the overall prediction.

Globally explain the model SQL

To know which features are generally the most important to determine penguin weight, you can use the ML.GLOBAL_EXPLAIN function. In order to use ML.GLOBAL_EXPLAIN, you must retrain the model with the ENABLE_GLOBAL_EXPLAIN option set to TRUE.

Retrain and get global explanations for the model:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the BigQuery page.

Go to BigQuery

  1. In the query editor, run the following query to retrain the model:

    #standardSQL
    CREATE OR REPLACE MODEL `bqml_tutorial.penguins_model`
    OPTIONS (
      model_type = 'linear_reg',
      input_label_cols = ['body_mass_g'],
      enable_global_explain = TRUE)
    AS
    SELECT
    *
    FROM
    `bigquery-public-data.ml_datasets.penguins`
    WHERE
    body_mass_g IS NOT NULL;
  2. In the query editor, run the following query to get global explanations:

    SELECT
    *
    FROM
    ML.GLOBAL_EXPLAIN(MODEL `bqml_tutorial.penguins_model`)
  3. The results should look similar to the following:
