Description
What Every Engineer Should Know About Data-Driven Analytics provides a comprehensive introduction to the theoretical concepts and approaches of machine learning that are used in predictive data analytics. By introducing the theory and by providing practical applications, this text can be understood by every engineering discipline. It offers a detailed and focused treatment of the important machine learning approaches and concepts that can be exploited to build models to enable decision making in different domains.
Utilizes practical examples from different disciplines and sectors within engineering and other related technical areas to demonstrate how to go from data, to insight, and to decision making
Introduces various approaches to build models that exploits different algorithms
Discusses predictive models that can be built through machine learning and used to mine patterns from large datasets
Explores the augmentation of technical and mathematical materials with explanatory worked examples
Includes a glossary, self-assessments, and worked-out practice exercises
Written to be accessible to non-experts in the subject, this comprehensive introductory text is suitable for students, professionals, and researchers in engineering and data science.
