Book Description

Machine learning is increasingly spreading in the modern data-driven world. It is used extensively across many fields such as search engines, robotics, self-driving cars, and more. Machine learning is transforming the way we understand and interact with the world around us.

In the first module, Python Machine Learning Cookbook, you will learn how to perform various machine learning tasks using a wide variety of machine learning algorithms to solve real-world problems and use Python to implement these algorithms.

The second module, Advanced Machine Learning with Python, is designed to take you on a guided tour of the most relevant and powerful machine learning techniques and you'll acquire a broad set of powerful skills in the area of feature selection and feature engineering.

The third module in this learning path, Large Scale Machine Learning with Python, dives into scalable machine learning and the three forms of scalability. It covers the most effective machine learning techniques on a map reduce framework in Hadoop and Spark in Python.

This Learning Path will teach you Python machine learning for the real world. The machine learning techniques covered in this Learning Path are at the forefront of commercial practice.

This Learning Path combines some of the best that Packt has to offer in one complete, curated package. It includes content from the following Packt products:

1. Python Machine Learning Cookbook by Prateek Joshi
2. Advanced Machine Learning with Python by John Hearty
3. Large Scale Machine Learning with Python by Bastiaan Sjardin, Alberto Boschetti, Luca Massaron

What you will learn

• Use predictive modeling and apply it to real-world problems
• Understand how to perform market segmentation using unsupervised learning
• Apply your new-found skills to solve real problems, through clearly-explained code for every technique and test
• Compete with top data scientists by gaining a practical and theoretical understanding of cutting-edge deep learning algorithms
• Increase predictive accuracy with deep learning and scalable data-handling techniques
• Work with modern state-of-the-art large-scale machine learning techniques

Having joined Kaggle over 10 years ago, Luca Massaron is a Kaggle Grandmaster in discussions and a Kaggle Master in competitions and notebooks. In Kaggle competitions he reached no. 7 in the worldwide rankings. On the professional side, Luca is a data scientist with more than a decade of experience in transforming data into smarter artifacts, solving real-world problems, and generating value for businesses and stakeholders. He is a Google Developer Expert(GDE) in machine learning and the author of best-selling books on AI, machine learning, and algorithms.

John Hearty is a Manager of Data Science team with substantial expertise in data science and infrastructure engineering. Having started out in mobile gaming, he was drawn to the challenge of AAA console analytics. Keen to start putting advanced machine learning techniques into practice, he signed on with Microsoft to develop player modelling capabilities and big data infrastructure at an Xbox studio. His team made significant strides in engineering and data science that were replicated across Microsoft Studios. Some of the more rewarding initiatives he led included player skill modelling in asymmetrical games, and the creation of player segmentation models for individualized game experiences. Eventually, John struck out on his own as a consultant offering a comprehensive infrastructure and analytics solutions for international client teams seeking new insights or data-driven capabilities. His favorite current engagement involves creating predictive models and quantifying the importance of user connections for a popular social network. After years spent working with data, John is largely unable to stop asking questions. In his own time, he routinely builds ML solutions in Python to fulfill a broad set of personal interests. These include a novel variant on the StyleNet computational creativity algorithm and solutions for algo-trading and geolocation-based recommendation
