RE: Do you have to be a "genius" to work on machine learning?

in #technology7 years ago

Good post. I am slowly self-learning machine learning (I was not formally taught it) and programming (R, Python).

The O'Reilly books for R, Python and data science are good too.

I used to do a bunch of Datacamp courses but I think the cost is getting kinda steep for me. Books seem to be priced nearly the same as their $38/mth (CAD) plan.

Sort:  

I'm sure that you'll get lots of fun when studying machine learning. I have heard of the O'Reilly series on programming but haven't really read the books so can't give my comments. To me, watching videos to learn programming is more effective since the tutor will go through line by line to explain. Reading programming books makes you sleepy sometime. Youtube has lots of free good courses, especially those courses of MIT and Stanford.
