Before ending this chapter, I want to introduce the reader to a very powerful algorithm called t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE), which can be employed to visualize high-dimensional dataset also in 2D plots. In fact, one the hardest problems that every data scientist has to face is to understand the structure of a complex dataset without the support of graphs. This algorithm has been proposed by Van der Maaten and Hinton (in Visualizing High-Dimensional Data Using t-SNE, Van der Maaten L.J.P., Hinton G.E., Journal of Machine Learning Research 9 (Nov), 2008), and can be used to reduce the dimensionality trying to preserve the internal relationships. A complete discussion is beyond the scope of this book (but the reader can check out the aforementioned paper and Mastering Machine Learning Algorithms, Bonaccorso...

Overview of this book
Machine learning has gained tremendous popularity for its powerful and fast predictions with large datasets. However, the true forces behind its powerful output are the complex algorithms involving substantial statistical analysis that churn large datasets and generate substantial insight.
This second edition of Machine Learning Algorithms walks you through prominent development outcomes that have taken place relating to machine learning algorithms, which constitute major contributions to the machine learning process and help you to strengthen and master statistical interpretation across the areas of supervised, semi-supervised, and reinforcement learning. Once the core concepts of an algorithm have been covered, you’ll explore real-world examples based on the most diffused libraries, such as scikit-learn, NLTK, TensorFlow, and Keras. You will discover new topics such as principal component analysis (PCA), independent component analysis (ICA), Bayesian regression, discriminant analysis, advanced clustering, and gaussian mixture.
By the end of this book, you will have studied machine learning algorithms and be able to put them into production to make your machine learning applications more innovative.
