Targeted Learning in Data Science Springer Verlag GmbH

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

This textbook for Masters and PhD graduate students in biostatistics, statistics, data science, and epidemiology deals with the practical challenges that come with big, complex, and dynamic data while maintaining a strong theoretical foundation. It presents a scientific roadmap to translate real-world data science applications into formal statistical estimation problems by using the general template of targeted maximum likelihood estimators to construct targeted machine learning algorithms that incorporate state of the art applications to estimate quantities of interest, while still providing valid inference. Targeted learning methods within data science are a critical component for answering complex statistical questions in the modern age. The techniques can answer complex questions including optimal rules for assigning treatment based on longitudinal data involving time-dependent confounding and censoring as well as other estimands in dependent data structures, such as networks. Standard methods and software tools are not currently equipped for these challenges; however, targeted learning is tailored for these problems found in precision medicine, big data, and data science. Included in Targeted Learning in Data Science are demonstrations with software packages and real data sets that present a case that targeted learning is crucial for the next generation of statisticians and data scientists.

Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning Springer

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The dramatic growth in practical applications for machine learning over the last ten years has been accompanied by many important developments in the underlying algorithms and techniques. For example, Bayesian methods have grown from a specialist niche to become mainstream, while graphical models have emerged as a general framework for describing and applying probabilistic techniques. The practical applicability of Bayesian methods has been greatly enhanced by the development of a range of approximate inference algorithms such as variational Bayes and expectation propagation, while new models based on kernels have had a significant impact on both algorithms and applications.This completely new textbook reflects these recent developments while providing a comprehensive introduction to the fields of pattern recognition and machine learning. It is aimed at advanced undergraduates or first-year PhD students, as well as researchers and practitioners. No previous knowledge of pattern recognition or machine learning concepts is assumed. Familiarity with multivariate calculus and basic linear algebra isrequired, and some experience in the use of probabilities would be helpful though not essential as the book includes a self-contained introduction to basic probability theory.The book is suitable for courses on machine learning, statistics, computer science, signal processing, computer vision, data mining, and bioinformatics.

Categorization and Machine Learning Books on Demand

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Machine learning is the attempt to imitate human categorization of perceived reality in computers. It is driven by the desire to provide machines that are as open-minded, intelligent and flexible as humans. The central goal is to provide classifications for arbitrary types of input data: Labels that characterize the data correctly, given some examples. Machine learning has been a research topic of computer science for several decades. This book summarizes the major findings, explains the practically relevant methods and discusses their communalities and differences. In the first of three parts, we introduce the setting, goals and all necessary tools for the definition, application and evaluation of learning algorithms. The second part discusses and compares the various algorithms employed in machine categorization today. We structure them in four groups: the optimization algorithms, risk minimization approaches, those that employ probabilistic inference and those that imitate neural inference processes. Outstanding examples from the list of algorithms are the vector space mode, the support vector machine, Bayes and Markov processes, conditional random fields, radial basis function networks and methods employed for deep learning such as the Boltzmann machine. The third part reviews the algorithms and explores the theoretical frontiers of machine learning. In summary, we endeavor to provide a comprehensive yet intuitive introduction into the field of categorization. Neither parallels to human cognition are neglected nor recent developments in algorithm design or theoretical justification. As a research field, machine learning is gaining more and more attention. This book explains what it is, where it can be applied and how it is done.
