ISBN: 0262361108
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 853
Book Description
The second edition of a comprehensive introduction to machine learning approaches used in predictive data analytics, covering both theory and practice.

This introductory textbook offers a detailed and focused treatment of the most important machine learning approaches used in predictive data analytics, covering both theoretical concepts and practical applications. Technical and mathematical material is augmented with explanatory worked examples, and case studies illustrate the application of these models in the broader business context. This second edition covers recent developments in machine learning, especially in a new chapter on deep learning, and two new chapters that go beyond predictive analytics to cover unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning.
