Machine Learning for Practical Decision Making: A Multidisciplinary Perspective with Applications from Healthcare, Engineering and Business Analytics: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Machine Learning for Practical Decision Making: A Multidisciplinary Perspective with Applications from Healthcare, Engineering and Business Analytics" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book provides a hands-on introduction to Machine Learning (ML) from a multidisciplinary perspective that does not require a background in data science or computer science. It explains ML using simple language and a straightforward approach guided by real-world examples in areas such as health informatics, information technology, and business analytics. The book will help readers understand the various key algorithms, major software tools, and their applications. Moreover, through examples from the healthcare and business analytics fields, it demonstrates how and when ML can help them make better decisions in their disciplines.

The book is chiefly intended for undergraduate and graduate students who are taking an introductory course in machine learning. It will also benefit data analysts and anyone interested in learning ML approaches.

The book series International Series in Operations Research and Management Science encompasses the various areas of operations research and management science. Both theoretical and applied books are included. It describes current advances anywhere in the world that are at the cutting edge of the field. The series is aimed especially at researchers, advanced graduate students, and sophisticated practitioners.

The series features three types of books:

Advanced expository books that extend and unify our understanding of particular areas.

Research monographs that make substantial contributions to knowledge.

Handbooks that define the new state of the art in particular areas. Each handbook will be edited by a leading authority in the area who will organize a team of experts on various aspects of the topic to write individual chapters. A handbook may emphasize expository surveys or completely new advances (either research or applications) or a combination of both.

The series emphasizes the following four areas:

Mathematical Programming: Including linear programming, integer programming, nonlinear programming, interior point methods, game theory, network optimization models, combinatorics, equilibrium programming, complementarity theory, multiobjective optimization, dynamic programming, stochastic programming, complexity theory, etc.

Applied Probability: Including queuing theory, simulation, renewal theory, Brownian motion and diffusion processes, decision analysis, Markov decision processes, reliability theory, forecasting, other stochastic processes motivated by applications, etc.

Production and Operations Management: Including inventory theory, production scheduling, capacity planning, facility location, supply chain management, distribution systems, materials requirements planning, just-in-time systems, flexible manufacturing systems, design of production lines, logistical planning, strategic issues, etc.

Applications of Operations Research and Management Science: Including telecommunications, health care, capital budgeting and finance, economics, marketing, public policy, military operations research, humanitarian relief and disaster mitigation, service operations, transportation systems, etc.

This book series is indexed in Scopus.

Preface

This book fills a gap in the machine learning literature. It presents the machine learning concepts in a very simple and practical way starting with a tangible example and building on it the theory. Each machine learning chapter starts with a presentation of the problem to solve, followed by a practical example on how the algorithm that solves the problem works, then comes the presentation of the machine learning algorithm theory and closing remarks (e.g., pitfalls, advantages limitations). This is followed by a set of key terms, a set of questions to test your understanding of the chapter material, a set of references to read more about the subject and hands-on lab exercises. The lab exercises allow readers to apply the chapters concepts and gain needed skills. To maximize the benefit for readers and to expose them to a myriad of machine learning languages and frameworks, the lab exercises (and sometimes the chapters material) are built around Python mainly, followed by R (and R Studio), and Weka. One of the strengths of this book is that it can be used by people who are exposed to programming or would like to learn how to program and those who prefer not to program but to solve decision-making problems with machine learning using simple graphical user interface. The former can use Python, the machine learning language par excellence, throughout all chapters, or R (limited to Chaps..
