Synopsis

Key FeaturesLearn about the statistics behind powerful predictive models with p-value, ANOVA, and F- statistics.Implement statistical computations programmatically for supervised and unsupervised learning through K-means clustering.Master the statistical aspect of Machine Learning with the help of this example-rich guide to R and Python.Book DescriptionComplex statistics in Machine Learning worry a lot of developers. Knowing statistics helps you build strong Machine Learning models that are optimized for a given problem statement. This book will teach you all it takes to perform complex statistical computations required for Machine Learning. You will gain information on statistics behind supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and more. Understand the real-world examples that discuss the statistical side of Machine Learning and familiarize yourself with it. You will also design programs for performing tasks such as model, parameter fitting, regression, classification, density collection, and more.By the end of the book, you will have mastered the required statistics for Machine Learning and will be able to apply your new skills to any sort of industry problem.What you will learnUnderstand the Statistical and Machine Learning fundamentals necessary to build modelsUnderstand the major differences and parallels between the statistical way and the Machine Learning way to solve problemsLearn how to prepare data and feed models by using the appropriate Machine Learning algorithms from the more-than-adequate R and Python packagesAnalyze the results and tune the model appropriately to your own predictive goalsUnderstand the concepts of required statistics for Machine LearningIntroduce yourself to necessary fundamentals required for building supervised & unsupervised deep learning modelsLearn reinforcement learning and its application in the field of artificial intelligence domainAbout the AuthorPratap Dangeti develops machine learning and deep learning solutions for structured, image, and text data at TCS, analytics and insights, innovation lab in Bangalore. He has acquired a lot of experience in both analytics and data science. He received his masters degree from IIT Bombay in its industrial engineering and operations research program. He is an artificial intelligence enthusiast. When not working, he likes to read about next-gen technologies and innovative methodologies.Table of ContentsJourney from Statistics to Machine LearningParallelism of Statistics and Machine LearningLogistic Regression vs. Random ForestTree-Based Machine Learning modelsK-Nearest Neighbors & Naive BayesSupport Vector Machines & Neural NetworksRecommendation EnginesUnsupervised LearningReinforcement Learning
