“This book provides a great practical guide to get started and execute on ML within a few days without necessarily knowing much about ML apriori. The first five chapters are enough to get you started and the next few chapters provide you a good feel of more advanced topics to pursue. A wonderful book for engineers who want to incorporate ML in their day-to-day work without necessarily spending an enormous amount of time going through a formal degree program.”–Deepak Agarwal, VP of Artificial Intelligence at LinkedIn
“This book is a great introduction to machine learning from a world-class practitioner and LinkedIn superstar Andriy Burkov. He managed to find a good balance between the math of the algorithms, intuitive visualizations, and easy-to-read explanations. This book will benefit the newcomers to the field as a thorough introduction to the fundamentals of machine learning, while the experienced professionals will definitely enjoy the practical recommendations from Andriy’s rich experience in the field.”–Karolis Urbonas, Head of Data Science at Amazon
“I wish such a book existed when I was a statistics graduate student trying to learn about machine learning. There is the right amount of math which demystify the centerpiece of an algorithm with succinct but very clear descriptions. I’m also impressed by the widespread coverage and good choices of important methods as an introductory book (not all machine learning books mention things like learning to rank or metric learning). Highly recommended to STEM major students.”–Chao Han, VP, Head of R&D at Lucidworks

“The Hundred-Page Machine Learning Book is an excellent read to get started with Machine Learning. In his book, Andriy Burkov distills the ubiquitous material on Machine Learning into concise and well-balanced intuitive, theoretical and practical elements that bring beginners, managers, and practitioners many life hacks.”–Vincent Pollet, Head of Research at Nuance
Product Description
Peter Norvig, Research Director at Google, co-author of AIMA, the most popular AI textbook in the world: “Burkov has undertaken a very useful but impossibly hard task in reducing all of machine learning to 100 pages. He succeeds well in choosing the topics — both theory and practice — that will be useful to practitioners, and for the reader who understands that this is the first 100 (or actually 150) pages you will read, not the last, provides a solid introduction to the field.”
Aurélien Géron, Senior AI Engineer, author of the bestseller Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn and TensorFlow: “The breadth of topics the book covers is amazing for just 100 pages (plus few bonus pages!). Burkov doesn’t hesitate to go into the math equations: that’s one thing that short books usually drop. I really liked how the author explains the core concepts in just a few words. The book can be very useful for newcomers in the field, as well as for old-timers who can gain from such a broad view of the field.”
Karolis Urbonas, Head of Data Science at Amazon: “A great introduction to machine learning from a world-class practitioner.”
Chao Han, VP, Head of R&D at Lucidworks: “I wish such a book existed when I was a statistics graduate student trying to learn about machine learning.”
Sujeet Varakhedi, Head of Engineering at eBay: “Andriy’s book does a fantastic job of cutting the noise and hitting the tracks and full speed from the first page.”
