A computational approach to statistical learning/ Taylor Arnold, Michael Kane and Bryan W Lewis

By: Contributor(s): Series: Texts in Statistical SciencePublication details: Boca Raton: CRC Press, 2019Description: xiii, 361 pages, 22.5 cmISBN:
  • 9780367494049
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 23 006.31015195 Ar658
Contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. Linear Models -- 3. Ridge Regression and principal component analysis -- 4. Linear Smoothers -- 5. Generalized linear models -- 6. Additive models -- 7. Penalized regression models -- 8. Neural networks -- 9. Dimensionality reduction -- 10. Computation in practice -- A Linear algebra and matrices -- B Floating point arithmetic and numerical computation
Summary: A Computational Approach to Statistical Learning gives a novel introduction to predictive modeling by focusing on the algorithmic and numeric motivations behind popular statistical methods. The text contains annotated code to over 80 original reference functions. These functions provide minimal working implementations of common statistical learning algorithms. Every chapter concludes with a fully worked out application that illustrates predictive modeling tasks using a real-world dataset.
