Overview of this book

If you are looking to build data science models that are good for production, Java has come to the rescue. With the aid of strong libraries such as MLlib, Weka, DL4j, and more, you can efficiently perform all the data science tasks you need to. This unique book provides modern recipes to solve your common and not-so-common data science-related problems. We start with recipes to help you obtain, clean, index, and search data. Then you will learn a variety of techniques to analyze, learn from, and retrieve information from data. You will also understand how to handle big data, learn deeply from data, and visualize data. Finally, you will work through unique recipes that solve your problems while taking data science to production, writing distributed data science applications, and much more - things that will come in handy at work.

Preface

Applying machine learning on data using Java Machine Learning (Java-ML) library


Java Machine Learning (Java-ML) library is a collection of standard machine learning algorithms. Unlike Weka, the library does not have any GUI because it is primarily aimed at software developers. A particularly advantageous feature of Java-ML is that it has a common interface for each type of algorithm, and therefore, implementation of the algorithms is fairly easy and straightforward. The support for the library is another key feature of it since the source codes are well documented and hence extendable, and there are plenty of code samples and tutorials for all sorts of machine learning tasks that can be accomplished using the library. The website http://java-ml.sourceforge.net/ has all the details regarding the library.

In this recipe, we will use this library to do the following tasks:

  • Dataset import and export

  • Clustering and evaluation

  • Classification

  • Cross-validation and held-out testing

  • Feature scoring

  • Feature...
