Summary

The machine learning techniques covered in this book are at the forefront of commercial practice such as image recognition, NLP and web search, computational creativity and commercial/financial data modeling. Deep learning algorithms and ensembles of models are in the use by data scientists at top tech and digital companies. This book is designed to take the reader on a guided tour of the most relevant and powerful machine learning techniques. Clear descriptions of how techniques work and detailed code examples demonstrate deep learning techniques, semi-supervised learning, and more, in real-world applications. We will also learn about NumPy and Theano. By the end of this book, you will have learned a set of advanced machine learning techniques and acquire a broad set of powerful skills in the area of feature selection and feature engineering.
