However, unlike previous books that only discuss these rather different approaches in isolation, it bridges the two schools of thought together within a common framework, elegantly connecting their various theories and making one common big-picture. Also, this bridge brings forth new hybrid discriminative-generative tools that combine the strengths of both camps. This book serves multiple purposes as well. The framework acts as a scientific breakthrough, fusing the areas of generative and discriminative learning and will be of interest to many researchers. However, as a conceptual breakthrough, this common framework unifies many previously unrelated tools and techniques and makes them understandable to a larger portion of the public. This gives the more practical-minded engineer, student and the industrial public an easy-access and more sensible road map into the world of machine learning. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMachine Learning: Discriminative and Generative\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for an audience composed of researchers \u0026amp; practitioners in industry and academia. The book is also suitable as a secondary text for graduate-level students in computer science and engineering. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-09-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461347569\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4419-9011-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 200.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44316736585868,"sku":"9781461347569","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461347569.jpg?v=1767147132","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461347569","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
