Introduction to Machine Learning

Description

We live on a planet with billions of people—but also billions of computers, many of them programmed to evaluate and make decisions much as humans do. We don’t yet reside among truly intelligent machines, but they are getting there, and knowing how machines learn is crucial for everyone from professionals to students to ordinary citizens. Machine learning pervades our culture in a multitude of ways, through tools and practices from medical diagnosis and data management to speech synthesis and search engines.
