Machine Learning (ML)
Machine learning is the study of computer algorithms to learn how to react in a certain situation or recognize patterns. According to Arthur Samuel (1959),
"Machine Learning is a field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed."
ML has a large amount of algorithms generally split in to three groups; given how the algorithm is training:
Supervised learning
Unsupervised learning
Reinforcement learning
Relevant numbers of algorithms are used throughout the book and are combined with practical examples, leading the reader through the process from the data problem to its programming solution.
