6 Questions To Understand Any Machine Learning Algorithm

Last Updated on August 12, 2019

There are a lot of machine learning algorithms and each algorithm is an island of research.

You have to choose the level of detail that you study machine learning algorithms. There is a sweet spot if you are a developer interested in applied predictive modeling.

This post describes that sweet spot and gives you a template that you can use to quickly understand any machine learning algorithm.

Kick-start your project with my new book Master Machine Learning Algorithms, including step-by-step tutorials and the Excel Spreadsheet files for all examples.

What You Need To Know About a Machine Learning Algorithm?

What do you need to know about a machine learning algorithm to be able to use it well on a classification or prediction problem?

I won’t argue that the more that you know about how and why a particular algorithm works, the better you can wield it. But
