About this book
Firstly, it takes common competition scenarios as a guide by giving the main processes of using machine learning to solve real-world problems, namely problem modelling, data exploration, feature engineering, model training. And then lists the main points of difficulties, general ideas with solutions in the whole process. Moreover, this book comprehensively covers several common problems in the field of machine learning competitions such as recommendation, temporal prediction, advertising, text computing, etc.
The authors, also knew as "competition professionals”, will explain the actual cases in detail and teach you various processes, routines, techniques and strategies, which is a rare treasure book for all competition enthusiasts. It is very suitable for readers who are interested in algorithm competitions and deep learning algorithms in practice, or computer-related majors.Keywords
