An Introduction to Statistical Learning: with Applications in R (Springer Texts in Statistics)

I would like to upskill data related subject included introduction to statistics. Although I reached the beginning of chapter 3 but I've read and worked through all problems and exercises. Those are valuable although there are no solutions. I let gou recap and know in and out of R. But yes, you have to effort into it.Printings are in color. Paper is in good quality. Although thee cover slightly hit and bumped down a bit on the top left, I dont mind that much as it is a hard cover which protects paper inside.I believe after finish this one, I will continue the next in the series.In short, good purchase.

The authors Hastie and Tibshirani are legends in the stats world, creating GAM and LASSO respectively. Their other textbook "The Elements of Statistical Learning" is geared for PhD students. This textbook is very accessible, with figures and lots of sample code. The target audience is any aspiring data scientist who can learn to code and wants to actually understand what the code/models are doing (but doesn't need to be able to derive all the original math by hand). In addition to teaching different analyses, this book does a great job on explaining key statistical analysis concepts, like bias vs variance tradeoff, k-fold cross-validation, bootstrapping, finding the right balance in model complexity for your dataset, etc. There is both an R and a Python edition. The 2nd edition includes 3 new chapters on survival analysis, multiple testing, and neural nets. There is a free Stanford MOOC that uses this text.

Trata los temas con claridad y de forma práctica

I used this book in my statistical learning & data mining course last summer. At the time, the pdf version of this book was available from my university library so I didn't get the hard copy until now. The reason I decided to get the hard copy is that the theory/conceptual part is well-balanced between proper depth and easy-to-understand. Even though I'm now doing a Machine Learning training program in Python, I still recall the rationale of different models that were well explained in this book. So I've decided to get a permanent copy.

Es un buen libro, practico y actualizado, con una version en online de junio 2023, que no cambia la edicion impresa

Needed it for class and yep learned things.

good product and best price

I recently used this book along with a couple others in a graduate level ML course. IMO it was the best in terms of striking a good balance; containing enough detail to help grasp theory but not so much that it becomes a slog to get through. I used the Ebook in class and liked it enough to buy a hardcopy. Unfortunately, the print font size is quite small. Overall dimension is smaller than listed on Amazon. Maybe that was how big the 1st edition was?
