Machine Learning and Data Science: Fundamentals and Applications (Hardcover)

機器學習（ML）和數據科學（DS）是非常活躍且範圍廣泛的話題，無論在理論還是應用方面都如此。它們已經成為一個重要的新興科學領域和範式，推動統計學、計算科學和智能科學等學科的研究進化，並在科學、工程、公共部門、商業、社會科學和生活方式等領域進行實際轉化。同時，它們的應用提供了重要的挑戰，通常只能通過創新的機器學習和數據科學算法來解決。

這些算法涵蓋了人工智能、數據分析、機器學習、模式識別、自然語言理解和大數據處理等更廣泛的領域。它們還應對相關的新科學挑戰，從數據捕獲、創建、存儲、檢索、共享、分析、優化和可視化，到跨異質和相互依賴的複雜資源的整合分析，以實現更好的決策、協作和價值創造。

這本傑出的新書聚焦於機器學習和數據科學的最新發展，以及數據科學和機器學習之間的協同作用。本書探討了統計學、數學和計算方面的新發展，這些對於從機器學習角度來看的數據科學是相關的，包括基礎、系統、創新應用和其他與機器學習整體設計以及與數據科學相關的模型和算法的研究貢獻。

本書涵蓋了機器學習和數據科學研究和開發的所有方面，包括但不限於數據發現、計算機視覺、自然語言處理（NLP）、智能系統、神經網絡、基於人工智能的軟件工程、生物信息學以及它們在工程、商業和社會科學領域的應用。它涵蓋了社區、工業、政府和學術界的廣泛應用。無論是對於資深工程師或科學家、學生還是在該領域工作的經理或其他技術人員，這本書都是任何圖書館必備的資料。
