Overview of this book

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.

Chapter 21. Automatic Prose Generation with Recurrent Neural Networks

We have been interacting through this book for almost 200 pages, but I realized that I have not introduced myself properly to you! I guess it's time. You already know some bits about me through the author profile in this book; however, I want to tell you a bit about the city I live in. I am based in South India, in a city called Bengaluru, also know as Bangalore. The city is known for its IT talent and population diversity. I love the city, as it is filled with loads of positive energy. Each day, I get to meet people from all walks of life—people from multiple ethnicities, multiple backgrounds, people who speak multiple languages, and so on. Kannada is the official language spoken in the state of Karnataka where Bangalore is located. Though I can speak bits and pieces of Kannada, my proficiency with speaking the language is not as good as a native Kannada speaker. Of course, this is an area of improvement for me and I...
