Understanding Machine Learning, (Hardcover)

This book represents a milestone in machine learning theory pedagogy. From this source, readers will learn how different methods of analysis apply to different machine learning problems. This is a book for those who want to dig deeper than the minimum to apply machine learning algorithms in practice. The book explores the question of why the algorithms work, and the extent that we can make such claims. Why is this book a milestone? Prior to the arrival of this textbook it was very difficult to put together a self-study program to learn this topic.
