Overview of this book

<p><span id="description" class="sugar_field">The mission of this course is to turn you into a productive, innovative data analyst who can leverage Go to build robust and valuable applications. To this end, the course clearly introduces the technical aspects of building predictive models in Go, but also helps you understand how machine learning workflows are applied in real-world scenarios.</span></p> <p><span id="description" class="sugar_field">This course shows you how to be productive in machine learning while also producing applications that maintain a high level of integrity. It also gives you patterns to overcome challenges that are often encountered when trying to integrate machine learning in an engineering organization.</span></p> <p><span id="description" class="sugar_field">You’ll begin by gaining a solid understanding of how to gather, organize, and parse real-work data from a variety of sources. Then you’ll develop a solid statistical toolkit that will allow you to quickly understand gain intuition about the content of a dataset. Finally, you’ll gain hands-on experience of implementing essential machine learning techniques (regression, classification, clustering, and so on) with the relevant Go packages.</span></p> <p><span id="description" class="sugar_field">By the end, you’ll have a solid machine learning mindset and a powerful Go toolkit of techniques, packages, and example implementations</span></p> <h2><span class="sugar_field">Style and Approach</span></h2> <p><span class="sugar_field"><span id="trade_selling_points_c" class="sugar_field">This course connects the fundamental, theoretical concepts behind Machine Learning to practical implementations using the Go programming language. It will give you the practical skills to perform the most common machine learning tasks with Go.</span></span></p>

Nonlinear and Other Types of Regression
We certainly are not limited to performing regression with linear formulas. We can model your dependent variable by one or more nonlinear terms such as powers, exponentials, or other transformations on your independent variables - First form a matrix containing our advertising spend feature - We create a new ridge.RidgeRegression value with our independent and dependent variable matrices - Test this ridge regression formula by creating our own predict function
