What you will learn Define a problem that can be solved by training a machine learning model Obtain, verify and clean data before transforming it into the correct format for use Perform exploratory analysis and extract features from data Build models for neural net, linear and non-linear regression, classification, and clustering Evaluate the performance of a model with the right metrics Implement a classification problem using the neural net package Employ a decision tree using the random forest library Who this book is for If you are a data analyst, data scientist, or a business analyst who wants to understand the process of machine learning and apply it to a real dataset using R, this book is just what you need. Data scientists who use Python and want to implement their machine learning solutions using R will also find this book very useful. The book will also enable novice programmers to start their journey in data science. Basic knowledge of any programming language is all you need to get started.

Practical Machine Learning with Rust: Creating Intelligent Applications in Rust

by Joydeep Bhattacharjee

Explore machine learning in Rust and learn about the intricacies of creating machine learning applications. This book begins by covering the important concepts of machine learning such as supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning, and the basics of Rust. Further, you’ll dive into the more specific fields of machine learning, such as computer vision and natural language processing, and look at the Rust libraries that help create applications for those domains. We will also look at how to deploy these applications either on site or over the cloud. After reading Practical Machine Learning with Rust, you will have a solid understanding of creating high computation libraries using Rust. Armed with the knowledge of this amazing language, you will be able to create applications that are more performant, memory safe, and less resource heavy. What You Will LearnWrite machine learning algorithms in RustUse Rust libraries for different tasks in machine learningCreate concise Rust packages for your machine learning applicationsImplement NLP and computer vision in RustDeploy your code in the cloud and on bare metal servers Who This Book Is For Machine learning engineers and software engineers interested in building machine learning applications in Rust.
