Overview of this book

Scala is a highly scalable integration of object-oriented nature and functional programming concepts that make it easy to build scalable and complex big data applications. This book is a handy guide for machine learning developers and data scientists who want to develop and train effective machine learning models in Scala. The book starts with an introduction to machine learning, while covering deep learning and machine learning basics. It then explains how to use Scala-based ML libraries to solve classification and regression problems using linear regression, generalized linear regression, logistic regression, support vector machine, and Naïve Bayes algorithms. It also covers tree-based ensemble techniques for solving both classification and regression problems. Moving ahead, it covers unsupervised learning techniques, such as dimensionality reduction, clustering, and recommender systems. Finally, it provides a brief overview of deep learning using a real-life example in Scala.

What's next?

So far, we have mostly covered classic and tree-based algorithms for both regression and classification. We saw that the ensemble technique showed the best performance compared to classic algorithms. However, there are other algorithms, such as one-vs-rest algorithm, which work for solving classification problems using other classifiers, such as logistic regression.

Apart from this, neural-network-based approaches, such as multilayer perceptron (MLP), convolutional neural network (CNN), and recurrent neural network (RNN), can also be used to solve supervised learning problems. However, as expected, these algorithms require a large number of training samples and a large computing infrastructure. The datasets we used so far throughout the examples had a few samples. Moreover, those were not so high dimensional. This doesn't mean that we cannot use them to...
