Hands-On Automated Machine Learning

By: Sibanjan Das, Umit Mert Cakmak

Overview of this book

AutoML is designed to automate parts of Machine Learning. Readily available AutoML tools are making data science practitioners’ work easy and are received well in the advanced analytics community. Automated Machine Learning covers the necessary foundation needed to create automated machine learning modules and helps you get up to speed with them in the most practical way possible. In this book, you’ll learn how to automate different tasks in the machine learning pipeline such as data preprocessing, feature selection, model training, model optimization, and much more. In addition to this, it demonstrates how you can use the available automation libraries, such as auto-sklearn and MLBox, and create and extend your own custom AutoML components for Machine Learning. By the end of this book, you will have a clearer understanding of the different aspects of automated Machine Learning, and you’ll be able to incorporate automation tasks using practical datasets. You can leverage your learning from this book to implement Machine Learning in your projects and get a step closer to winning various machine learning competitions.

Dive into Deep Learning

The next step in artificial intelligence (AI) is more about automation. In this book, we have covered some of the fundamentals of Automated machine learning (AutoML). There is one more area of AI that has just begun showing up in multiple use cases and is required to be applied extremely for automation. This area of the AI landscape is known as deep learning (DL). DL is at the tipping point of what machines can do. It can do more than machine learning (ML), with ease and with better precision. A DL algorithm can learn the critical features of a dataset by itself, can adjust the weights to create a better model, and much more. The applications of DL networks are extensive.

With the advent of Deep learning, researchers and practitioners in the field of image, speech, and video recognition, are seeing some actionable results. It has helped AI to get close...
