    About this ebook

    A textbook suitable for undergraduate courses in machine learningand related topics, this book provides a broad survey of the field.Generous exercises and examples give students a firm grasp of theconcepts and techniques of this rapidly developing, challenging subject.

    Introduction to Machine Learning synthesizes and clarifiesthe work of leading researchers, much of which is otherwise availableonly in undigested technical reports, journals, and conference proceedings.Beginning with an overview suitable for undergraduate readers, Kodratoffestablishes a theoretical basis for machine learning and describesits technical concepts and major application areas. Relevant logicprogramming examples are given in Prolog.

    Introduction to Machine Learning is an accessible and originalintroduction to a significant research area.
