What are the basic concepts in machine learning?
I found that the best way to discover and get a handle on the basic concepts in machine learning is to review the introduction chapters to machine learning textbooks and to watch the videos from the first model in online courses.
Pedro Domingos is a lecturer and professor on machine learning at the University of Washing and author of a new book titled “The Master Algorithm: How the Quest for the Ultimate Learning Machine Will Remake Our World“.
Domingos has a free course on machine learning online at courser titled appropriately “Machine Learning“. The videos for each module can be previewed on Coursera any time.
In this post you will discover the basic concepts of machine learning summarized from Week One of Domingos’ Machine Learning course.
Machine Learning
The first half of the lecture is on the general topic of machine learning.
