A Concise Introduction to Machine Learning

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Artificial intelligence technologies will be transformational for our society, but not in the manner that the confident proclaimers of utopia and dystopia suggest. The changes we expect are sociotechnical; they require careful understanding from both the societal and technical perspectives. This is where Anita Faul's A Concise Introduction to Machine Learning comes in. With comprehensive coverage of the mathematical principles of machine learning, Anita's book provides the foundation of principled choices that students need to make good decisions when separating the noise from the signal. This foundation is critical to ensuring that we develop the beneficial aspects of the technology while curtailing the damaging outcomes. This can only occur through comprehensive understanding of the capabilities and limitations of these techniques.

Welcome to Anita's world: a concise introduction to machine learning that builds on solid foundations, practical real-world experience and a long experience of sharing these principles with students."
