A Course in Machine Learning

by Hal Daum III

Machine learning is the study of algorithms that learn from


data and experience. It is applied in a vast variety of
application areas, from medicine to advertising, from
military to pedestrian. Any area in which you need to make
sense of data is a potential consumer of machine learning.

CIML is a set of introductory materials that covers most


major aspects of modern machine learning (supervised
learning, unsupervised learning, large margin methods,
probabilistic modeling, learning theory, etc.). It's focus is
on broad applications with a rigorous backbone. A subset
can be used for an undergraduate course; a graduate course
could probably cover the entire material and then some.

You may obtain the written materials by purchasing a ($55)


print copy, by downloading the entire book, or by
downloading individual chapters below. If you find the
electronic version of the book useful and would like to
donate a small amount to support further development,
that's always appreciated! You can get the source code for
the book, labs and other teaching materials on GitHub. The
current version is 0.99 (the "beta" pre-release). [You can
view v0.9 if you prefer.

Support and Mailing Lists:

If you would like to be informed when new versions of


CIML materials are released, please join the CIML mailing
list. If you find errors in the book, please fill out a bug
report. If you're the first to submit an error, you'll get listed
in the acknowledgments!
