    Description: Introduction to Machine Learning is a comprehensive textbook on the subject, covering a broad array of topics not usually included in introductory machine learning texts. Subjects include supervised learning; Bayesian decision theory; parametric, semiparametric, and nonparametric methods; multivariate analysis; hidden Markov models; reinforcement learning; kernel machines; graphical models; Bayesian estimation; and statistical testing. Machine learning is rapidly becoming a skill that computer science students must master before graduation. This new edition of the book reflects this shift, with added support for beginners, including selected solutions for exercises and additional example data sets (with code available online). Other substantial changes include discussions of outlier detection; ranking algorithms for perceptors and support vector machines; matrix decomposition and spectral methods; distance estimation; new kernel algorithms; deep learning in multilayered perceptrons; and the nonparametric approach to Bayesian methods. All learning algorithms are explained so that students can easily move from the equations in the book to a computer program. The book can be used by both advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students. It will also be of interest to professionals who are concerned with the application of machine learning methods. “Ethem Alpaydin's Introduction to Machine Learning provides a nice blending of the topical coverage of machine learning (à la Tom Mitchell) with formal probabilistic foundations (à la Christopher Bishop). This newly updated version now introduces some of the most recent and important topics in machine learning (e.g., spectral methods, deep learning, and learning to rank) to students and researchers of this critically important and expanding field.” —John W. Sheppard, Professor of Computer Science, Montana State University “This volume is both a complete and accessible introduction to the machine learning world. This is a 'Swiss Army knife' book for this rapidly evolving subject. Although intended as an introduction, it will be useful not only for students but for any professional looking for a comprehensive book in this field. Newcomers will find clearly explained concepts and experts will find a source for new references and ideas.” —Hilario Gómez-Moreno, IEEE Senior Member, University of Alcalá, Spain Contents: Preface Notations 1.

    DESCRIPTION

    Introduc on to Machine Learning is a comprehensive textbook on the subject, covering a broad array
    of   topics   not   usually   included   in   introductory   machine   learning   texts.   Subjects   include   supervised
    learning;   Bayesian   decision   theory;   parametric,   semiparametric,   and   nonparametric   methods;
    mul variate   analysis;   hidden   Markov   models;   reinforcement   learning;   kernel   machines;   graphical 
    models;  Bayesian  es ma on;  and  sta s cal  tes ng.

    Machine   learning   is   rapidly   becoming   a   skill   that   computer   science   students   must   master   before
    gradua on. This new edi on of the book reflects this shi , with added support for beginners, including
    selected solu ons for exercises and addi onal example data sets (with code available online). Other
    substan al changes include discussions of outlier detec on; ranking algorithms for perceptors and
    support vector machines; matrix decomposi on and spectral methods; distance es ma on; new kernel
    algorithms; deep learning in mul layered perceptrons; and the nonparametric approach to Bayesian
    methods.   All   learning   algorithms   are   explained   so   that   students     can     easily     move     from     the 
    equa ons  in  the  book  to  a  computer  program. 

    The book can be used by both advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students. It will also be of
    interest to professionals who are concerned with the applica on of machine learning methods.

    “Ethem Alpaydin's Introduc on to Machine Learning provides a nice blending of the topical coverage of
    machine learning (à la Tom Mitchell) with formal probabilis c founda ons (à la Christopher Bishop).
    This newly updated version now introduces some of the most recent and important topics in machine
    learning (e.g., spectral methods, deep learning, and learning to rank) to students and researchers of
    this cri cally  important  and  expanding  field.”

    —John W. Sheppard, Professor of Computer Science, Montana State University

    “This volume is both a complete and accessible introduc on to the machine learning world. This is a
    'Swiss Army knife' book for this rapidly evolving subject. Although intended as an introduc on, it will
    be useful not only for students but for any professional looking for a comprehensive book in this field.
    Newcomers will find clearly explained concepts and experts will find a source for new references and
