Overview of this book

Go is the perfect language for machine learning; it helps to clearly describe complex algorithms, and also helps developers to understand how to run efficient optimized code. This book will teach you how to implement machine learning in Go to make programs that are easy to deploy and code that is not only easy to understand and debug, but also to have its performance measured. The book begins by guiding you through setting up your machine learning environment with Go libraries and capabilities. You will then plunge into regression analysis of a real-life house pricing dataset and build a classification model in Go to classify emails as spam or ham. Using Gonum, Gorgonia, and STL, you will explore time series analysis along with decomposition and clean up your personal Twitter timeline by clustering tweets. In addition to this, you will learn how to recognize handwriting using neural networks and convolutional neural networks. Lastly, you'll learn how to choose the most appropriate machine learning algorithms to use for your projects with the help of a facial detection project. By the end of this book, you will have developed a solid machine learning mindset, a strong hold on the powerful Go toolkit, and a sound understanding of the practical implementations of machine learning algorithms in real-world projects.

What did this book not cover?

There are a number of things that we can explore in Go. Here's a non-exhaustive list of some things you may want to explore:

  • Random trees and random forests
  • Support vector machines
  • Gradient-boosting methods
  • Maximum-entropy methods
  • Graphical methods
  • Local outlier factors

Perhaps if there is a second edition to this book, I will cover them. If you are familiar with machine learning methods, you may note that these, especially the first three, are perhaps some of the highest-performing machine learning methods, when compared with the things written in this book. You might wonder why they were not included. The schools of thought that these methods belong to might supply a clue.

For example, random trees and random forests can be considered pseudo-Symbolist—they're a distant cousin of the Symbolist school of thought, originating from...
