Python: Deeper Insights into Machine Learning

By: David Julian, Sebastian Raschka, John Hearty

Overview of this book

Machine learning and predictive analytics are becoming one of the key strategies for unlocking growth in a challenging contemporary marketplace. It is one of the fastest growing trends in modern computing, and everyone wants to get into the field of machine learning. In order to obtain sufficient recognition in this field, one must be able to understand and design a machine learning system that serves the needs of a project. The idea is to prepare a learning path that will help you to tackle the real-world complexities of modern machine learning with innovative and cutting-edge techniques. Also, it will give you a solid foundation in the machine learning design process, and enable you to build customized machine learning models to solve unique problems. The course begins with getting your Python fundamentals nailed down. It focuses on answering the right questions that cove a wide range of powerful Python libraries, including scikit-learn Theano and Keras.After getting familiar with Python core concepts, it’s time to dive into the field of data science. You will further gain a solid foundation on the machine learning design and also learn to customize models for solving problems. At a later stage, you will get a grip on more advanced techniques and acquire a broad set of powerful skills in the area of feature selection and feature engineering.

Chapter 9. Additional Python Machine Learning Tools

Over the course of the eight preceding chapters, we have examined and applied a range of techniques that help us enrich and model data for many applications.

We approached the content in these chapters using a combination of Python libraries, particularly NumPy and Theano, while the other libraries were drawn upon as and when we needed to access specific algorithms. We did not spend a great deal of time discussing what other options existed in terms of tools, what the unique differentiators of these tools were, or why we might be interested.

The primary goal of this final chapter is to highlight some other key libraries and frameworks that are available to you to use. These tools streamline and simplify the process of creating and applying models. This chapter presents these tools, demonstrates their application, and provides extensive advice regarding Further reading.
