About The Hundred-Page Machine Learning Book
Product Description As its title says, it's the hundred-page machine learning book. It was written by an expert in machine learning holding a Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence with almost two decades of industry experience in computer science and hands-on machine learning. This is a unique book in many aspects. It is the first successful attempt to write an easy to read book on machine learning that isn't afraid of using math. It's also the first attempt to squeeze a wide range of machine learning topics in a systematic way and without loss in quality. The book contains only those parts of the huge body of material on machine learning developed since the 1960s that have proven to have a significant practical value. A beginner in machine learning will find in this book just enough details to get a comfortable level of understanding of the field and start asking the right questions. Practitioners with experience will use this book as a collection of pointers to the directions of further self-improvement. The book also comes in handy when brainstorming at the beginning of a project, when you try to answer the question whether a given technical or business problem is "machine-learnable" and, if yes, which techniques you should try to solve it. The book comes with a which contains pages that extend some book chapters with additional information: Q&A, code snippets, further reading, tools, and other relevant resources. Thanks to the continuously updated wiki this book like a good wine keeps getting better after you buy it. Review "Burkov has undertaken a very useful but impossibly hard task in reducing all of machine learning to 100 pages. He succeeds well in choosing the topics--both theory and practice--that will be useful to practitioners, and for the reader who understands that this as the first 100 (or actually 150) pages you will read, not the last, provides a solid introduction to the field." -- Peter Norvig, Research Director at Google, author of the most popular artificial intelligence textbook in the world Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach "The breadth of topics the book covers is amazing for just 100 pages (plus few bonus pages!). Burkov doesn't hesitate to go into the math equations: that's one thing that short books usually drop. I really liked how the author explains the core concepts in just a few words. The book can be very useful for newcomers in the field, as well as for old-timers who can gain from such a broad view of the field." -- Aurélien Géron, Senior Artificial Intelligence Engineer, author of a #1 Amazon bestseller Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn and TensorFlow "This book is a great introduction to machine learning from a world-class practitioner and LinkedIn superstar Andriy Burkov. He managed to find a good balance between the math of the algorithms, intuitive visualizations, and easy-to-read explanations. This book will benefit the newcomers to the field as a thorough introduction to the fundamentals of machine learning, while the experienced professionals will definitely enjoy the practical recommendations from Andriy's rich experience in the field." -- Karolis Urbonas, Head of Data Science at Amazon "I wish such a book existed when I was a statistics graduate student trying to learn about machine learning. There is the right amount of math which demystify the centerpiece of an algorithm with succinct but very clear descriptions. I'm also impressed by the widespread coverage and good choices of important methods as an introductory book (not all machine learning books mention things like learning to rank or metric learning). Highly recommended to STEM major students or professionals who are interested to get started with machine learning for their analytics projects or preparing for data science interviews." -- Chao Han, VP, Head of R&D at Lucidworks "Whether you want to become a machine learning practitioner or looking for an everyday resource, Andriy's book does a fantastic
