An Empirical Study of Challenges in Machine Learning Asset Management

In machine learning (ML), efficient asset management, including ML models, datasets, algorithms, and tools, is vital for resource optimization, consistent performance, and a streamlined development lifecycle. This enables quicker iterations, adaptability, reduced development-to-deployment time, and reliable outputs. Despite existing research, a significant knowledge gap remains in operational challenges like model versioning, data traceability, and collaboration, which are crucial for the success of ML projects. Our study aims to address this gap by analyzing 15,065 posts from developer forums and platforms, employing a mixed-method approach to classify inquiries, extract challenges using BERTopic, and identify solutions through open card sorting and BERTopic clustering. We uncover 133 topics related to asset management challenges, grouped into 16 macro-topics, with software dependency, model deployment, and model training being the most discussed. We also find 79 solution topics, categorized under 18 macro-topics, highlighting software dependency, feature development, and file management as key solutions. This research underscores the need for further exploration of identified pain points and the importance of collaborative efforts across academia, industry, and the research community.
