Parallel and Distributed Approaches Ron Bekkerman | LinkedIn Corporation, Mountain View, California

In many practical situations it is impossible to run existing machine learning methods on a single computer, because either the data is too large or the speed and throughput requirements are too demanding. Researchers and practitioners will find here a variety of machine learning methods developed specifically for parallel or distributed systems, covering algorithms, platforms and applications.

• A comprehensive view of modern machine learning, covering most of the contemporary research on large-scale problems • Presents methods for scaling up a wide array of learning tasks, including classification, clustering, regression and feature selection • Shows how to run state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms, such as boosted decision trees and SVMs, on multiple parallel-computing platforms Pattern recognition and machine learning

This book presents a new approach to causal inference (finding relationships from a set of data) and explanation (assessing why a particular event occurred), addressing both the timing and complexity of relationships. The practical use of the method developed is illustrated through theoretical and experimental case studies, demonstrating its feasibility and success.

• Provides practical methods for automated inference and explanation where the relationships can be more complex than one variable leading to another and can take place over windows of time • Offers the first method for causal inference where relationships are described using a temporal logic Artificial intelligence and natural language processing
