Learn supervised machine learning for tabular data using Python, pandas, scikit-learn, CatBoost, LightGBM, XGBoost, TabPFN, and TabICL for regression, classification, and predictive modeling
Key Features
- Explore, clean, and prepare tabular datasets for machine learning workflows
- Build regression and classification models using modern machine learning tools
- Improve predictions with calibration, conformal intervals, and optimization techniques
Book Description
Master the essential tools and techniques for supervised machine learning on tabular data with this practical guide to regression and classification. Through clear explanations, code snippets, and hands-on notebooks, you'll learn how to use Python and leading machine learning libraries, including pandas, scikit-learn, CatBoost, LightGBM, XGBoost, TabPFN, and TabICL, to build predictive models for real-world datasets.
The book covers the complete workflow, from data exploration and cleaning to model development, evaluation, and optimization. You'll learn how to perform regression analysis for accurate point predictions and estimate uncertainty using conformal prediction intervals. For classification tasks, you'll explore probabilistic predictions and calibration techniques to improve model reliability. You'll also discover practical approaches to feature engineering, feature selection, and hyperparameter optimization to enhance model performance. In addition, the book introduces tabular foundation models and in-context learning techniques, providing insight into the latest advances in machine learning for structured data.
By the end of the book, you'll have the skills and confidence to develop, evaluate, and deploy supervised machine learning models for a wide range of tabular data applications.
What you will learn
- Perform exploratory data analysis and data cleaning
- Apply cross-validation for reliable model evaluation
- Build regression models and prediction intervals
- Develop calibrated probabilistic classification models
- Optimize models through hyperparameter tuning
- Engineer and select features for improved performance
- Use ensemble learning methods effectively
- Explore tabular foundation models and in-context learning
Who this book is for
This book is designed for motivated self-learners, university students studying applied machine learning, junior data scientists, and academic researchers looking to incorporate machine learning into their analytical workflows. Readers should have a basic familiarity with Python and data analysis concepts. Whether you're developing predictive models for business, research, or educational purposes, this book provides the practical guidance needed to apply modern machine learning techniques to structured and tabular datasets.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
-
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
-
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
-
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
