Bayesian Reasoning and Machine Learning

Bayesian Reasoning and Machine Learning PDF

Book Description:

Machine learning methods extract value from large data sets quickly and with modest resources. They are established tools in a wide range of industrial applications, including search engines, DNA sequencing, stock market analysis, and robotic locomotion, and their use is spreading rapidly. People who know the methods can choose rewarding jobs. This practical text opens these opportunities to computer science students with modest mathematical backgrounds. It is designed for final year undergraduate and masters students with limited experience in linear algebra and calculus. Complete and coherent, it develops from basic reasoning to advanced techniques in the field of graphic models. Students learn more than a menu of techniques, develop analytical and problem-solving skills that equip them for the real world. Numerous examples and exercises, both computer and theoretical, are included in each chapter. Resources for students and teachers, including a MATLAB toolbox, are available online

This hands-on introduction for undergraduates and graduates is ideal for computer scientists who are new to calculus and linear algebra. Numerous examples and exercises are provided.
