Chapter 8: Comet for Machine Learning

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the ability of a computer to perform operations and tasks that are usually done by humans. AI includes different subfields, such as machine learning, natural language processing, deep learning, and time series analysis. In this chapter, we will focus on machine learning, and in the following ones, you will review other subfields of AI, including natural language processing (Chapter 9,Comet for Natural Language Processing), deep learning (Chapter 10, Comet for Deep Learning), and time series analysis (Chapter 11, Comet for Time Series Analysis).

Machine learning aims at using computational algorithms to transform data into usable models. In other words, machine learning tries to build models that learn from data. You can use machine learning algorithms for different purposes and in different domains, such as describing a phenomenon, predicting future values, or detecting anomalies in a phenomenon under investigation...
