    • 5/5
      This was a good straight forward introduction to Machine Learning.
    • 1/5
      Not very technical because it tries to be high level. Unfortunately it ends up being just 'hand waving' so you don't really learn anything.

    Is this book for me?

    This book is for those who are interested in machine learning. There are a lot of skills that a data scientist needs, such as coding, intellectual mindset, eagerness to make new discoveries, and much more.

    It’s important that you are interested in this because you are obsessed with this kind of work. Your driving force should not be money. If it is, then this book is not for you.

    Introduction

    There is absolutely no question about it: artificial intelligence is the future. However, artificial intelligence is also the present. It’s one of the faster-growing tech fields and, as I’m sure you’re aware, the future is only going to see more and more demand for capable artificial intelligence programmers.

    I’m not certain why you’re reading this book. Perhaps you’re already on the path to studying artificial intelligence and machine learning in college or a university, and you’re wanting a book that will put you on an excellent path forward and help you figure out the context and rationale behind your lessons as you push on. Perhaps you’re wanting to switch fields and take advantage of the massive wave of demand that’s hitting for artificial intelligence, data analysis, and machine learning as we speak. Or perhaps you’re just a hobbyist interested in learning exactly what this machine learning that everybody’s talking about is.

    Regardless of your ultimate machine, you’re reading the right book. This book is intended to break down machine learning and the many, many concepts which build it up.

    The book will begin by looking at machine learning and what it is, as well as why one would benefit from looking into machine learning and learning the nuances of this specific area of artificial intelligence. This will give you a clear sense of purpose as you go through the rest of the book and start thinking of ways to apply this in a day-to-day sense.

    Afterward, it’s going to start breaking the concept of machine learning down into bite-sized chunks. We’re going to start with the biggest and most nebulous concepts, and then slowly work our way down to things at the smallest and most intricate levels. We’ll be studying the numerous different paradigms for machine learning and how they can be programmed and implemented within your own code, as well as getting a feel for the algorithms which build them up. Throughout all of this, the goal is simply to foster an appreciation for the immense and difficult topic that is machine learning.

    The goal at this point is to build a very intimate knowledge of the inner workings of machine learning so that by the time you’re finished with all the finer details and the algorithms, you’ll be able to go into a deeper level on any of the topics in this book and start to have an idea of how they all work at a more strenuous and taxing level. As such, we’re going to be spending a lot of time at the algorithmic level and breaking every type of machine learning down into its various disciplines, as well as discussing the primary terms used within the context of machine learning and what they mean.

    After all of that, we’re going to start looking at the applications of machine learning. This will help you to get a much better feel for machine learning and how it works, which can be a great boon for your understanding of how these many concepts that we’re covering can be reasonably applied. This will run the gamut from discussions of anti-spam measures implemented by email providers, to the use of machine learning algorithms in applications like the development of smarter robotics.

    This book is being written for the simple reason that I am passionate about machine learning and artificial intelligence. I want to help you to spur your own passion and build a genuine love for these extremely interesting topics. That’s why this book is designed with the reader in mind,
