{"product_id":"understanding-machine-learning-9781107057135","title":"Understanding Machine Learning","description":"Machine learning is one of the fastest growing areas of computer science, with far-reaching applications. The aim of this textbook is to introduce machine learning, and the algorithmic paradigms it offers, in a principled way. The book provides an extensive theoretical account of the fundamental ideas underlying machine learning and the mathematical derivations that transform these principles into practical algorithms. Following a presentation of the basics of the field, the book covers a wide array of central topics that have not been addressed by previous textbooks. These include a discussion of the computational complexity of learning and the concepts of convexity and stability; important algorithmic paradigms including stochastic gradient descent, neural networks, and structured output learning; and emerging theoretical concepts such as the PAC-Bayes approach and compression-based bounds. Designed for an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate course, the text makes the fundamentals and algorithms of machine learning accessible to students and non-expert readers in statistics, computer science, mathematics, and engineering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eShalev-Shwartz, Shai:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Shai Shalev-Shwartz is an Associate Professor at the School of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBen-David, Shai:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Shai Ben-David is a Professor in the School of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, Canada.","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50556680274194,"sku":"9781107057135","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_4953e782-37b6-421e-a6ae-4c09dd5be960.jpg?v=1731759669","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/understanding-machine-learning-9781107057135","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
