The aim of this textbook is to introduce machine learning, and the algorithmic paradigms it offers, in a principled way.
Learn how to use a problem's "weight" against itself. Learn more about the problems before starting on the solutions—and use the findings to solve them, or determine whether the problems are worth solving at all. Its function is something like a traditional textbook — it will provide the detail and background theory to support the School of Data courses and challenges. This book describes the process of analyzing data. The authors have extensive experience both managing data analysts and conducting their own data analyses, and this book is a distillation of their experience D3 Tips and Tricks is a book written to help those who may be unfamiliar with JavaScript or web page creation get started turning information into visualization.
