Machine Learning is a branch of Artificial Intelligence dedicated at making machines learn from observational data without being explicitly programmed.
Machine learning and AI are not the same. Machine learning is an instrument in the AI symphony — a component of AI. So what is Machine Learning — or ML — exactly? It’s the ability for an algorithm to learn from prior data in order to produce a behavior. ML is teaching machines to make decisions in situations they have never seen.
This curriculum is made to guide you to learn machine learning, recommend tools, and help you to embrace ML lifestyle by suggesting media to follow. I update it regularly to maintain freshness and get rid of outdated content and deprecated tools.
Study this section to understand fundamental concepts and develop intuitions before going any deeper.

Deep learning is a branch of machine learning where deep artificial neural networks (DNN) — algorithms inspired by the way neurons work in the brain — find patterns in raw data by combining multiple layers of artificial neurons. As the layers increase, so does the neural network’s ability to learn increasingly abstract concepts.
The simplest kind of DNN is a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP).

DNNs that work with grid data like sound waveforms, images and videos better than ordinary DNNs. They are based on the assumptions that nearby input units are more related than the distant units. They also utilize translation invariance. For example, given an image, it might be useful to detect the same kind of edges everywhere on the image. They are sometimes called convnets or CNNs.

Before you begin, please read this blog post to understand the motivation of searching in general: https://www.determined.ai/blog/stop-doing-iterative-model-development
Open your eyes to search-driven development. It will change you. Main benefit is that there will be no setbacks. Only progress and improvement are allowed. Imagine working and progressing everyday, instead of regressing backwards because your new solution doesn't work. This guaranteed progress is what search-driven development will do to you. Apply it to everything in optimization, not just machine learning.
My top opinionated preferences are determined, ray tune, and optuna because of parallelization (distributed tuning on many machines), flexibility (can optimize arbitrary objectives and allow dataset parameters to be tuned), library of SOTA tuning algorithms (e.g. HyperBand, BOHB, TPE, PBT, ASHA, etc), result visualization/analysis tools, and extensive documentations/tutorials.
- https://github.com/determined-ai/determined Determined is an open-source deep learning training platform that makes building models fast and easy. IMO, it's best for cheaply tuning hyperparameters of deep learning models because it will train many epochs on models that have promising metrics and early stop models that don't. They support AWS and most cloud services as first-class citizen. They also support preemptible instances, which is again, cheap. When you finish training, all the GPU instances are automatically shutdown. If you want to save money on large-scale training, go with Determined.

Make machines learn without the tedious task of feature engineering, model selection, and hyperparameter tuning that you have to do yourself. Let the machines perform machine learning for you!
Personally if I have a tabular dataset I would try FLAML and mljar first, especially if you want to get something working fast. If you want to try gradient boosting frameworks such as XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost, etc but you don't know which one works best, I suggest you to try AutoML first because internally it will try the gradient boosting frameworks mentioned previously.

If you are a beginner and want to get started with my suggestions, please read this issue: #4
From now on, this list is going to be compact and opinionated towards my own real-world ML journey and I will put only content that I think are truly beneficial for me and most people. All the materials and tools that are not good enough (in any aspect) will be gradually removed to combat information overload, including:
- too difficult materials without much intuition; impractical content
- too much theory without real-world practice
- low-quality and unstructured materials
- courses that I don't consider to enroll myself
- knowledge or tools that are too niche and not many people can use it in their works e.g. deepdream or unsupervised domain adaptation (because you can Google it if you want to use it in your work).
- tools that are beaten by other tools; not being state-of-the-art anymore
- commercial tools that look like it can die any time soon
- projects that are outdated or not maintained anymore
NOTE: There is no particular rank for each link. The order in which they appear does not convey any meaning and should not be treated differently.
- Fork this repository, then apply your change.
- Make a pull request and tag me if you want.
- That's it. If your edition is useful, I'll merge it.
Or you can just submit a new issue containing the resource you want me to include if you don't have time to send a pull request.
The resource you want to include should be free to study.
