Machine Learning With R Cookbook - 110 Recipes for Building Powerful Predictive Models with R

Key Features
Apply R to simplify predictive modeling with short and simple code
Use machine learning to solve problems ranging from small to big data
Build a training and testing dataset from the churn dataset, applying different classification methods
Book Description
The R language is a powerful open source functional programming language. At its core, R is a statistical programming 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 performing data ETL in R. Data exploration examples are provided that demonstrate how powerful data visualization and machine learning is in discovering hidden relationships. You will then dive into important machine learning topics, including data classification, regression, clustering, association rule mining, and dimension reduction.

What you will learn
