A self-taught project about Machine Learning & Deep Learning with Python. Thanks to the countless researchers and developers around the world and their open-source code, particularly Python-based open-source code!

From Reading to Coding - Self-study

The Brief Introduction

As a mobile app developer with more than 3 years of experience but with no
background in machine learning. I found these books to be pure gold. I want to
understand Machine Learning algorithms and will find tutorials to teach the concepts
required, with a final hands-on application at the end that is useful.

I have read many artificial intelligence books. But most of the books are heavily
focused on the mathematics of artificial intelligence, which makes them difficult to
understand for people without mathematics or computer science backgrounds.
I have always wanted to find out a book that could make it easier to get into
the artificial intelligence field for beginners—people from all different disciplines.

Thanks to the countless researchers and developers around the world and
their open source code, particularly Python-based open source code, it is
much easier to use artificial intelligence now than 10 years ago.
Through these books, I will find that I can do amazing things with just
a few lines of code, and in some cases, I don’t need to code at all.
