Exploring Machine Learning Basics
Exploring Machine Learning Basics has been created by machine learning expert Luis G. Serrano with hand-picked chapters taken from three Manning books. The first chapter lays a foundation by explaining what machine learning is, the different kinds of machine learning, and how a machine learns. With those basics under your belt, you’ll explore the most widely used types of machine learning and how to choose the most effective one for your task. You’ll also discover the many benefits of using machine learning in your business and how automating as many processes as possible can significantly boost productivity. Lastly, you’ll examine the important role humans play in successful machine learning models, such as selecting the right data to review and creating the training data that machines will ultimately learn from. This introductory sampler is an excellent first step on the path to a successful—and lucrative!—career in machine learning.
