Textbook in PDF format As one of the most comprehensive machine learning texts around, this book does justice to the field's incredible richness, but without losing sight of the unifying principles. Peter Flach's clear, example-based approach begins by discussing how a spam filter works, which gives an immediate introduction to machine learning in action, with a minimum of technical fuss. Flach provides case studies of increasing complexity and variety with well-chosen examples and illustrations throughout. He covers a wide range of logical, geometric and statistical models and state-of-the-art topics such as matrix factorisation and ROC analysis. Particular attention is paid to the central role played by features. The use of established terminology is balanced with the introduction of new and useful concepts, and summaries of relevant background material are provided with pointers for revision if necessary. These features ensure Machine Learning will set a new standard as an introductory textbook. Prologue: A machine learning sampler. The ingredients of machine learning. Tasks: the problems that can be solved with machine learning. Models: the output of machine learning. Features: the workhorses of machine learning. Binary classification and related tasks.

Neighbours and exemplars. Nearest-neighbour classification. Distance-based clustering. Hierarchical clustering. From kernels to distances. Probabilistic models. The normal distribution and its geometric interpretations. Probabilistic models for categorical data. Discriminative learning by optimising conditional likelihood. Probabilistic models with hidden variables. Compression-based models. Features. Kinds of feature. Feature transformations. Feature construction and selection. Model ensembles.
