Machine Learning with R Cookbook

The R language is a powerful open source functional programming language. At its core, R is a statistical language that provides impressive tools to analyze data and create high-level graphics. This book covers the basics of R by setting up a user-friendly programming environment and programming ETL in R. Data exploration examples are provided that demonstrate how powerful data visualisation and machine learning is in discovering hidden relationships. You will also explore air quality data, steps to fix the missing values and visualising the same. You will then dive into important machine learning topics, including data classification, regression, survival analysis, time series analysis, clustering association rule mining, and dimension reduction.This book will include the latest code and examples based on R 3.3 and above—updated for better computation, accuracy, and speed with R.
