Azure Machine Learning ' s experiment tracking is built around two complementary concepts. First, experiments are named containers that group related runs. By calling mlflow.set_experiment with an experiment name at the start of your training code, all subsequent runs are grouped under that experiment name in the AML workspace, creating the centralized record required. Second, metrics are scalar values such as accuracy, loss, or AUC that represent model performance. Calling mlflow.log_metric with a metric name and value during training persists these values to the run ' s record in the experiment history. These values appear on the Azure ML Studio run detail page and can be compared across runs using the experiment comparison view. Without set_experiment, runs fall into a default experiment. Without log_metric, the run history has no performance data to display or compare.
