Book Description
Teach your machine to think for itself!
Supervised machine learning is used in a wide range of sectors (such as finance,online advertising,and analytics) because it allows you to train your system to make pricing predictions,campaign adjustments,customer recommendations,and much more while the system self-adjusts and makes decisions on its own. As a result,it’s crucial to know how a machine “learns” under the hood.
This book will guide you through the implementation and nuances of many popular supervised machine learning algorithms while facilitating a deep understanding along the way. You’ll embark on this journey with a quick overview and see how supervised machine learning differs from unsupervised learning. Next,we explore parametric models such as linear and logistic regression,non-parametric methods such as decision trees,and various clustering techniques to facilitate decision-making and predictions. As we proceed,you’ll work hands-on with recommender systems,which are widely used by online companies to increase user interaction and enrich shopping potential. Finally,you’ll wrap up with a brief foray into neural networks and transfer learning.
By the end of this book,you’ll be equipped with hands-on techniques and will have gained the practical know-how you need to quickly and powerfully apply algorithms to new problems.
