Synopsis
Learn to expertly apply a range of machine learning methods to real data with this practical guide.
Packed with real datasets and practical examples, The Art of Machine Learning will help you develop an intuitive understanding of how and why ML methods work, without the need for advanced math.
As you work through the book, you’ll learn how to implement a range of powerful ML techniques, starting with the k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) method and random forests, and moving on to gradient boosting, support vector machines (SVMs), neural networks, and more.
With the aid of real datasets, you’ll delve into regression models through the use of a bike-sharing dataset, explore decision trees by leveraging New York City taxi data, and dissect parametric methods with baseball player stats. You’ll also find expert tips for avoiding common problems, like handling “dirty” or unbalanced data, and how to troubleshoot pitfalls.
You’ll also explore:
- How to deal with large datasets and techniques for dimension reduction
- Details on how the Bias-Variance Trade-off plays out in specific ML methods
- Models based on linear relationships, including ridge and LASSO regression
- Real-world image and text classification and how to handle time series data
Machine learning is an art that requires careful tuning and tweaking. With The Art of Machine Learning as your guide, you’ll master the underlying principles of ML that will empower you to effectively use these models, rather than simply provide a few stock actions with limited practical use.
Requirements: A basic understanding of graphs and charts and familiarity with the R programming language

Paperback. Condition: New. Computing. Machine learning without advanced math! This book presents a serious, practical look at machine learning, preparing you for valuable insights on your own data. The Art of Machine Learning is packed with real dataset examples and sophisticated advice on how to make full use of powerful machine learning methods. Readers will need only an intuitive grasp of charts, graphs, and the slope of a line, as well as familiarity with the R programming language. You'll become skilled in a range of machine learning methods, starting with the simple k-Nearest Neighbours method (k-NN), then on to random forests, gradient boosting, linear/logistic models, support vector machines, the LASSO, and neural networks. Final chapters introduce text and image classification, as well as time series. You'll learn not only how to use machine learning methods, but also why these methods work, providing the strong foundational background you'll need in practice. Additional features: How to avoid common problems, such as dealing with 'dirty' data and factor variables with large numbers of levels; A look at typical misconceptions, such as dealing with unbalanced data; Exploration of the famous Bias-Variance Tradeoff, central to machine learning, and how it plays out in practice for each machine learning method; Dozens of illustrative examples involving real datasets of varying size and field of application; Standard R packages are used throughout, with a simple wrapper interface to provide convenient access. After finishing this book, you will be well equipped to start applying machine learning techniques to your own datasets. Seller Inventory # LU-9781718502109
