Book Description

Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are here to stay. Yes, that's right. Based on a significant amount of data and evidence, it's obvious that ML and AI are here to stay.

Consider any industry today. The practical applications of ML are really driving business results. Whether it's healthcare, e-commerce, government, transportation, social media sites, financial services, manufacturing, oil and gas, marketing, and sales. You name it. The list goes on. There's no doubt that ML is going to play a decisive role in every domain in the future.

But what does a machine learning professional do?

A machine learning specialist develops intelligent algorithms that learn from data and also adapt to the data quickly. Then, these high-end algorithms make accurate predictions.

Python Machine Learning for Beginners presents you with a hands-on approach to learn ML fast. You'll learn about data analysis and visualization in great detail in the first half of the book. Then, in the second half, you'll learn about machine learning and statistical models for data science.

Each chapter presents you with the theoretical framework behind the different data science and machine learning techniques, and practical examples illustrate the working of these techniques.

By the end of this course, you will have a firm grasp on the theoretical foundations of machine learning and artificial intelligence as well as having explored and practiced various real-world applications through Python.
