Machine Learning is a branch of Artificial Intelligence that focuses on prediction, based on known properties of the training data, and Python is the most used programming language when it comes to Machine Learning. This book is about Machine Learning programming in Python through practical and effective examples.

Machine Learning has become one of the most active and exciting areas of computer science research, largely due to its widespread applicability to problems as diverse as natural language processing, speech recognition, spam detection, search, computer vision, gene discovery, medical diagnosis, and robotics. At the same time, the growing popularity of the Internet and social networking sites like Facebook has led to the availability of novel sources of data on the preferences, behavior, and beliefs of massive populations of users.

"Building Machine Learning system with Python" shows you exactly how to find patterns through raw data. The book starts by brushing up your Python ML knowledge and introducing libraries and then moving on to more serious projects on datasets, modeling, recommendations, and improving recommendations through examples.

The wide applicability of Python ML is an important factor. More and more, machine learning is used to enhance different applications.
Python is uniquely positioned to be used as an application language (either on the desktop or on the web) and to expose the computationally intensive learning algorithms in an easy-to-use way.

There is a lot of demand for machine learning in the industry, and there are several high quality open source Machine Learning libraries for Python. This book shows you how to stay ahead by discussing cutting-edge Python ML aspects such as regression and classification, and then moving to more advanced areas of improving your recommendations, music genre classification, character recognition, and so on.

This is a tutorial-driven and practical, but well-grounded book showcasing good Machine Learning practices. There will be an emphasis on using existing technologies instead of showing how to write your own implementations of algorithms. This book is a scenario-based, example-driven tutorial. By the end of the book you will have learnt critical aspects of Machine Learning Python projects and experienced the power of ML-based systems by actually working on them.

This book primarily targets Python developers who want to learn about and build Machine Learning into their projects, or who want to provide Machine Learning support to their existing projects, and see them get implemented effectively .

Computer science researchers, data scientists, Artificial Intelligence programmers, and statistical programmers would equally gain from this book and would learn about effective implementation through lots of the practical examples discussed.

Readers need no prior experience with Machine Learning or statistical processing. Python development experience is assumed.
