Emphasizing how and why machine learning algorithms work, this introductory textbook bridges the gap between the theoretical foundations of machine learning and its practical algorithmic and code-level implementation. Over 85 thorough worked examples, in both Matlab and Python, demonstrate how algorithms are implemented and applied whilst illustrating the end result. Over 75 end-of-chapter problems empower students to develop their own code to implement these algorithms, equipping them with hands-on experience. Matlab coding examples demonstrate how a mathematical idea is converted from equations to code, and provide a jumping off point for students, supported by in-depth coverage of essential mathematics including multivariable calculus, linear algebra, probability and statistics, numerical methods, and optimization. Accompanied online by instructor lecture slides, downloadable Python code and additional appendices, this is an excellent introduction to machine learning for senior undergraduate and graduate students in Engineering and Computer Science.

Dive into the foundations of intelligent systems, machine learning, and control with this hands-on, project-based introductory textbook. Precise, clear introductions to core topics in fuzzy logic, neural networks, optimization, deep learning, and machine learning, avoid the use of complex mathematical proofs, and are supported by over 70 examples. Modular chapters built around a consistent learning framework enable tailored course offerings to suit different learning paths. Over 180 open-ended review questions support self-review and class discussion, over 120 end-of-chapter problems cement student understanding, and over 20 hands-on Arduino assignments connect theory to practice, supported by downloadable Matlab and Simulink code. Comprehensive appendices review the fundamentals of modern control, and contain practical information on implementing hands-on assignments using Matlab, Simulink, and Arduino. Accompanied by solutions for instructors, this is the ideal guide for senior undergraduate and graduate engineering students, and professional engineers, looking for an engaging and practical introduction to the field.
