In a world where big data is the norm and near-real-time decisions are crucial, machine learning (ML) is a critical component of the data workflow. Machine learning systems can quickly crunch massive amounts of information to offer insights and make decisions in a way that matches or even surpasses human cognitive abilities. These systems use sophisticated computational and statistical tools to build models that can recognize and visualize patterns, predict outcomes, forecast values, and make recommendations.
Real-World Machine Learning is a practical guide designed to teach developers the art of ML project execution. The book introduces the day-to-day practice of machine learning and prepares readers to successfully build and deploy powerful ML systems. Using the Python language and the R statistical package, it starts with core concepts like data acquisition and modeling, classification, and regression. Then it moves through the most important ML tasks, like model validation, optimization and feature engineering. It uses real-world examples that help readers anticipate and overcome common pitfalls. Along the way, they will discover scalable and online algorithms for large and streaming data sets. Advanced readers will appreciate the in-depth discussion of enhanced ML systems through advanced data exploration and pre-processing methods.
- Accessible and practical introduction to machine learning
- Contains big-picture ideas and real-world examples
- Prepares reader to build and deploy powerful predictive systems
- Offers tips & tricks and highlights common pitfalls
Code examples are in Python and R. No prior machine learning experience required.
Machine learning has gained prominence due to the overwhelming successes of Google, Microsoft, Amazon, LinkedIn, Facebook, and others in their use of ML. The Gartner report predicts that big data analytics will be a $25 billion market by 2017, and financial firms, marketing organizations, scientific facilities, and Silicon Valley startups are all demanding machine learning skills from their developers.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
