Book Description:

In this book, you will learn all the important machine learning algorithms that are commonly used in the field of data science. These algorithms can be used for supervised as well as unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and semi-supervised learning. The algorithms that are covered in this book are linear regression, logistic regression, SVM, na?e Bayes, k-means, random forest, TensorFlow and feature engineering.

In this book, you will how to use these algorithms to resolve your problems, and how they work. This book will also introduce you to natural language processing and recommendation systems, which help you to run multiple algorithms simultaneously.

On completion of the book, you will know how to pick the right machine learning algorithm for clustering, classification, or regression for your problem

What You Will Learn:

- Acquaint yourself with the important elements of machine learning

- Understand the feature selection and feature engineering processes

- Assess performance and error trade-offs for linear regression

- Build a data model and understand how it

- Learn to tune the parameters of SVMs

- Implement clusters in a dataset

- Explore the concept of Natural Processing Language and Recommendation Systems
