Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A definition states that the machine learning is a discipline that allows the computers to learn without explicit programming. The challenge in machine learning is how to accurately (algorithmic) describe some kinds of tasks that people can easily solve (for example face recognition, speech recognition etc.). Such algorithms can be defined for certain types of tasks, but they are very complex and/or require large knowledge base (e.g. machine translation MT). In many of the areas - data are continuously collected in order to get "some knowledge out of them" for example - in medicine (patient data and therapy), in marketing (the users / customers and what they buy, what are they interested in, how products are rated etc.). Data analysis of this scale requires approaches that will allow you to discover patterns and dependences among the data, that are neither known, nor obvious, but can be useful (data mining). Information retrieval - IR, is finding existing information as quickly as possible. For example, web browser - finds page within the (large) set of the entire WWW. Machine Learning - ML, is a set of techniques that generalize existing knowledge of the new information, as precisely as possible. An example is the speech recognition. Data mining - DM, primarily relates to the disclosure of something hidden within the data, some new dependence, which have not previously been known. Example is CRM - the customer analysis. Python is high-level programming language that is very suitable for web development, programming of games, and data manipulation / machine learning applications. It is object-oriented language and interpreter as well, allowing the source code to execute directly (without compiling). This edition covers machine learning theory and applications with Python, and includes chapters for soft computing theory, machine learning techniques/applications, Python language details, and machine learning examples with Python.
