Book Description

You’ll find artificial intelligence and machine learning in almost everything you use in your daily routine. Being able to create your own AI and ML models can land you an exciting job. The Applied Artificial Intelligence Workshop is the ticket to transforming your career.

The workshop begins by teaching you how to predict outcomes using regression. Then, you’ll learn to classify data using techniques, such as k-nearest neighbor and support vector machine classifiers. As you progress, you’ll explore various decision trees by learning how to build a reliable decision tree model that’s capable of aiding your company in finding cars that clients are likely to buy. The final chapters of the workshop will introduce you to deep learning and neural networks. Through various activities, such as predicting stock prices and recognizing handwritten digits, you’ll learn how to train and implement convolutional neural networks and recurrent neural networks.

By the end of the book, you’ll have learned to predict outcomes, train neural networks, and mastered various techniques to develop AL and ML models.

What you will learn

• Create your first game in Python with the Minmax algorithm
• Implement regression techniques to simplify real-world data
• Experiment with classification techniques to label real-world data
• Perform predictive analysis in Python using decision trees and random forests
• Use clustering algorithms to group data without manual support
• Learn how to use neural networks to process and classify labelled images

Who This Book Is For

The Applied Artificial Intelligence Workshop is designed for software developers and data scientists who want to enrich their projects with machine learning. You do not need any prior experience in AI. However, it’s recommended that you have knowledge of high school-level mathematics and at least one programming language, preferably Python. Although this is a beginner’s book, experienced students and programmers can improve their Python skills by implementing the practical applications given in this book.
