Riassunto

Master an array of machine learning techniques with real-world projects that interface TensorFlow with R, H2O, MXNet, and other languages

Key Features:

- Gain expertise in machine learning, deep learning, and predictive modeling techniques

- Build intelligent end-to-end projects for finance, social media, and a variety of other domains

- Implement multi-class classification, regression, and clustering in your models

Book Description:

R is one of the most popular languages when it comes to exploring the mathematical side of machine learning and easily performing computational statistics.

This Learning Path shows you how to leverage the R ecosystem to build efficient machine learning applications that carry out intelligent tasks within your organization. You'll work through realistic projects such as building powerful machine learning models with ensembles to predict employee attrition. Next, you'll explore different clustering techniques to segment customers using wholesale data and even apply TensorFlow and Keras-R for performing advanced computations. Each chapter will help you implement advanced machine learning algorithms using real-world examples. You'll also be introduced to reinforcement learning along with its use cases and models. Finally, this Learning Path will provide you with a glimpse into how some of these black box models can be diagnosed and understood.

By the end of this Learning Path, you'll be equipped with the skills you need to deploy machine learning techniques in your own projects.

What You Will Learn:

- Develop a joke recommendation engine to show jokes that match users' tastes

- Build autoencoders for credit card fraud detection

- Work with image recognition and convolutional neural networks

- Make predictions for casino slot machines using reinforcement learning

- Implement natural language processing (NLP) techniques for sentiment analysis and customer segmentation

- Produce simple and effective data visualizations for improved insights

- Use NLP to extract insights for text

- Implement tree-based classifiers including random forest and boosted tree

Who this book is for:

If you're a data analyst, data scientist, or machine learning developer who wants to master machine learning techniques using R, this is an ideal Learning Path for you. Each project will help you test your skills in implementing machine learning algorithms and techniques. A basic understanding of machine learning and working knowledge of R programming is necessary to get the most out of this Learning Path.
