Summary:
Data Mining with R: Learning with Case Studies, Second Edition uses practical examples to illustrate the power of R and data mining. Providing an extensive update to the best-selling first edition, this new edition is divided into two parts. The first part will feature introductory material, including a new chapter that provides an introduction to data mining, to complement the already existing introduction to R. The second part includes case studies, and the new edition strongly revises the R code of the case studies making it more up-to-date with recent packages that have emerged in R. The book does not assume any prior knowledge about R. Readers who are new to R and data mining should be able to follow the case studies, and they are designed to be self-contained so the reader can start anywhere in the document. The book is accompanied by a set of freely available R source files that can be obtained at the book’s web site. These files include all the code used in the case studies, and they facilitate the "do-it-yourself" approach followed in the book. Designed for users of data analysis tools, as well as researchers and developers, the book should be useful for anyone interested in entering the "world" of R and data mining.

Summary:
"This book will lead you from being a developer who is interested in machine learning with Python to a developer who has the resources and capability to work through a new dataset end-to-end using Python and develop accurate predictive models. After reading this ebook you will know…How to deliver a model that can make accurate predictions on new unseen data ; How to complete all subtasks of a predictive modeling problem with Python ; How to learn new and different techniques in Python and SciPy ; How to work through a small to medium sized dataset end-to-end ; How to get help with Python machine learning. You will know which Python modules, classes and functions to use for common machine learning tasks. From here you can start to dive into the specifics of the functions, techniques and algorithms used with the goal of learning how to use them better in order to deliver more accurate predictive models, more reliably in less time." -- Page 4 of cover
