Re: [BangPypers] Resource for ML

I can vouch for Coursera's ML courses by University of Washington.

It gives you a brief overview of the possibilities ML presents in the
foundations course - predictive models using regression,  document
classification, recommender systems in the very first course - good for
whetting your appetite with a black box approach. The next courses delve
deep into each example, be it Regression, or Classification - with generous
doses of math(some of it optional).
They use jupyter notebooks and have adapted to present solutions in
scikit-learn apart from the proprietary stuff they initially started off
with because one of the instructors was a founder of an AI and ML start-up
that they tried promoting  ( Maybe you've heard of Dato, now goes by the
name of Turi - acquired by Apple).

It should give you a good, firm grasp on the basics and enough to keep you
busy for a while.

I find Learn Data Science very good place to start, esp. for the beginners.

Hello,
while not having finished Andrew Ng's coursera course (yet), I started it
and like it, too. I don't think it's an disadvantage that it's Matlab (or
it's open source counterpart, Octave) - based (and I'm much more proficient
in Python than in Matlab).
Thanks to Abhinav and Harsh for the other recommendations.
Cheers,
Nenad

I collected some ML resources for inter hostel data analytic competition
here https://github.com/Azad-Hall/data-analytics

Other the Andrew ng's course, Caltech's "Learning from Data" (
http://work.caltech.edu/telecourse.html) course is really good for the
theoretical foundations of ML>

[BangPypers] Resource for ML

2017-06-06 Thread Ramkrishna P
Hello Team,
I have started out to work on pandas and numpy libraries to pick some
machine learning concepts.
I feel apart from working on datasets and getting some results, the
core concepts of machine learning are still missing.

If you guys could suggest some resources, it will be of great help.
