Machine Learning Algorithms - Second Edition

Preface

This book is an introduction to the world of machine learning, a topic that is becoming more and more important, not only for IT professionals and analysts but also for all the data scientists and engineers who want to exploit the enormous power of techniques such as predictive analysis, classification, clustering, and natural language processing. In order to facilitate the learning process, all theoretical elements are followed by concrete examples based on Python.

A basic but solid understanding of this topic requires a foundation in mathematics, which is not only necessary to explain the algorithms, but also to let the reader understand how it's possible to tune up the hyperparameters in order to attain the best possible accuracy. ...
