Take a data-first and use-case driven approach to understanding machine learning and deep learning concepts with Low-Code AI. This hands-on guide presents three problem-focused ways to learn ML: no code using AutoML, low-code using BigQuery ML, and custom code using scikit-learn and Keras. You'll learn key ML concepts by using real-world datasets with realistic problems. Business and data analysts get a project-based introduction to ML/AI using a detailed, data-driven approach: loading and analyzing data, feeding data into an ML model; building, training, and testing; and deploying the model into production. Authors Michael Abel and Gwendolyn Stripling show you how to build machine learning models for retail, healthcare, financial services, energy, and telecommunications.

Decision Intelligence (DI) has been widely named as a top technology trend for several years, and the Gartner Group reports that more than a third of large organizations are adopting it. Some even say that DI is the next step in the evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Gartner Group reports that more than a third of large organizations are adopting it. Some even say that DI is the next step in the evolution of AI. Many software vendors offer DI solutions today, as they help organizations implement their evidence-based or data-driven decision strategies. Until now, there has been little practical guidance for organizations to formalize decision-making and integrate their decisions with data. Decision Intelligence (DI) is a methodology and set of processes and technologies for making better, more evidence-based decisions by helping decision makers understand how the actions they take today can affect their desired outcomes in the future. The key concept of DI is the idea that you can design decisions. Importantly, a decision, as we treat it here, is a thought process about an action that, once made, leads to specific outcomes without any further intervention.
