  Here is whatyou should NOT do when you start studying machine learning in Python. 1. Get really good at Python programming and Python syntax. 2. Deeply understand the underlying theory and parameters for machine learning algorithms in scikit-learn*. 3. Avoid or lightly touch on all of the other tasks needed to complete a real project. - J. Brownlee in his book “Machine Learning Mastery with Python” * https://scikit-learn.org/stable/ Don’ts of Getting Started

  “Machine Learning isthe interaction between theoretically sound computer science and practically noisy data. Essentially, it’s about machines making sense out of data in much the same way as humans do. Machine learning is a type of artificial intelligence whereby an algorithm or method extracts patterns from data.” - Matthew Kirk in his book “Thoughtful Machine Learning with Python” Machine Learning Definitions

  “ML is amulti-disciplinary approach, involving several scientific domains (e.g., mathematics, computer science, physics, biology, etc.), that enable computers to automatically learn from data. By learning we mean here a process that takes as input data and gives as output algorithms capable of performing, over the same kind of data, a desired task.” - From the book “Machine Learning for Audio, Image and Video Analysis, 2e” Machine Learning Definitions

  “You will findit difficult to describe your mother’s face accurately enough for your friend to recognize her in a supermarket. But if you show him a few of her photos, he will immediately spot the tell-tale traits he needs. As they say, a picture- an example -is worth a thousand words. This is what we want our technology to emulate. Unable to define certain objects or concepts with accuracy, we want to convey them to the machine by ways of examples. For this to work, however, the computer has to be able to convert the examples into knowledge. Hence our interest in algorithms and techniques for machine learning …” - From the book “An Introduction to Machine Learning, 2e” Machine Learning Definitions

  “Facebook asks youto list your hometown and your current location, ostensibly to make it easier for your friends to find and connect with you. But it also analyzes these locations to identify global migration patterns and where the fanbases of different football teams live.” - From the book “Data Science from Scratch” Understanding Data Science

  Getting Started

  Getting Started withML Algorithms ● Regression: It is used to predict continuous variables (for e.g., salary, weight, temperature, etc.). It is a form of supervised learning since the input is mapped to an output using input-output pairs. Popular regression algorithms include Linear, eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), CatBoost, LightGBM, Lasso, Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Quantile regression. ● Classification: It is used to categorize data points (for e.g., spam filtering, predicting survival of people due to a collapsed building, etc.). It is a form of supervised learning. Popular classification algorithms include Logistic regression (yes, I said what I said), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Naive Bayes, XGB, and KNN (K Nearest Neighbor) classifier.

  Getting Started withML Algorithms ● Clustering: It involves grouping data points into ‘clusters’ on the basis of their similarity (for e.g., grouping customers into clusters on the basis of their consumer behavior). It is a form of unsupervised learning since the structure from the given input is not already defined. Unsupervised learning involves finding hidden structures in the data. Popular clustering algorithm K-Means, Hierarchical, DBSCAN clustering, and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). ● Dimensionality Reduction: As the name suggests, it reduces the number of input dimensions (variables). It is also used to conceal confidential data (for e.g., banking transactions, etc.). It is a form of unsupervised learning. Popular dimensionality reduction algorithms include t-SNE (t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding), and PCA (Principal Component Analysis).

  Getting Started withCore Libraries ● NumPy: NumPy (Numerical Python) is used to perform linear algebraic operations (for e.g., matrix operations). In Numpy, matrices are referred to as ‘arrays’. ● Pandas: Pandas is useful for performing analysis of the data. It can also perform basic visualization of the data (for e.g., line, scatter, box, bar plots, etc.) ● Matplotlib: The most comprehensive data visualization library Python ever had. Almost any graph can be plotted using the Matplotlib library. However, the resulting graphs are bland in nature by default and therefore require additional customization. ● Seaborn: Seaborn is a data visualization library and is one step ahead of Matplotlib. It requires less code to plot some graphs and produces more visually-appealing graphs.

  Getting Started withCore Libraries ● Plotly: The plots produced by Matplotlib and Seaborn are non-interactive, while Plotly yields interactive plots. The interactivity is done via hovering over the plot. ● Scikit-Learn: Often referred to as the Swiss Army knife of machine learning, Scikit-Learn (sklearn) can perform a multitude of ML operations on the data, including data scaling, clustering, dimensionality reduction, and encoding (converting categorical variables into numeric variables). ● Scipy: The go-to library for performing statistical operations on the data (for e.g., calculating the skewness and kurtosis, performing probability tests, hypothesis testing, etc.). ● OpenCV: OpenCV (opencv-python) is an intuitive library for performing image processing. Pose estimation, face mask detection, etc. are possible through this library.
