use cases. Fourth edition
Packt Publishing, 2024
The fourth edition of Python Machine Learning By Example is a
comprehensive guide for beginners and experienced machine learning
practitioners who want to learn more advanced techniques, such as
multimodal modeling. Written by experienced machine learning author
and ex-Google machine learning engineer Yuxi (Hayden) Liu, this edition
emphasizes best practices, providing invaluable insights for machine
learning engineers, data scientists, and analysts.
Explore advanced techniques, including two new chapters on natural
language processing transformers with BERT and GPT, and multimodal
computer vision models with PyTorch and Hugging Face. You’ll learn key
modeling techniques using practical examples, such as predicting stock
prices and creating an image search engine.
This hands-on machine learning book navigates through complex
challenges, bridging the gap between theoretical understanding and
practical application. Elevate your machine learning and deep learning
expertise, tackle intricate problems, and unlock the potential of advanced
techniques in machine learning with this authoritative guide.
