Machine learning in the real world

Machine Learning (ML) has become a mature technology that is being applied to a wide range of business problems such as web search, online advertising, product recommendations, object recognition, and so on. As a result, it has become imperative for researchers and practitioners to have a fundamental understanding of ML concepts and practical knowledge of end-to-end modeling. This tutorial takes a hands-on approach to introducing the audience to machine learning. The first part of the tutorial gives a broad overview and discusses some of the key concepts within machine learning. The second part of the tutorial takes the audience through the end-to-end modeling pipeline for a real-world income prediction problem.
