Preface

Finding something meaningful in increasingly larger and more complex datasets is a growing demand of the modern world. Machine learning and predictive analytics have become the most important approaches to uncover data gold mines. Machine learning uses complex algorithms to make improved predictions of outcomes based on historical patterns and the behavior of datasets. Machine learning can deliver dynamic insights into trends, patterns, and relationships within data, which is immensely valuable to the growth and development of business.

With this book, you will not only learn the fundamentals of Machine learning, but you will also dive deep into the complexities of the real-world data before moving onto using Hadoop and its wider ecosystem of tools to process and manage your structured and unstructured data.
