Build strong foundation for entering the world of Machine Learning and data science with the help of this comprehensive guideAbout This VideoGet started in the field of Machine Learning with the help of this solid, concept-rich, yet highly practical guide.Your one-stop solution for everything that matters in mastering the whats and whys of Machine Learning algorithms and their implementation.Get a solid foundation for your entry into Machine Learning by strengthening your roots (algorithms) with this comprehensive guide.In DetailAs the amount of data continues to grow at an almost incomprehensible rate, being able to understand and process data is becoming a key differentiator for competitive organizations. Machine Learning applications are everywhere, from self-driving cars, spam detection, document searches, and trading strategies, to speech recognition. This makes machine learning well-suited to the present-day era of big data and data science. The main challenge is how to transform data into actionable knowledge.In this course 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. A few famous algorithms that are covered in this book are: Linear regression, Logistic Regression, SVM, Naive Bayes, K-Means, Random Forest, and Feature engineering. In this course, you will also learn how these algorithms work and their practical implementation to resolve your problems.The code bundle for this video course is available at - https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Fundamentals-of-Machine-Learning-with-scikit-learn Show and hide more Publisher Resources Download Example Code
