Ceja E.G. Behavior Analysis with Machine Learning Using R

CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC, Enrique Garcia Ceja, 2022. — 432 p. — (Chapman & Hall/CRC The R Series). — ISBN 978-1-032-06704-9.Behavior Analysis with Machine Learning Using R introduces machine learning and deep learning concepts and algorithms applied to a diverse set of behavior analysis problems. It focuses on the practical aspects of solving such problems based on data collected from sensors or stored in electronic records. The included examples demonstrate how to perform common data analysis tasks such as: data exploration, visualization, preprocessing, data representation, model training and evaluation. All of this, using the R programming language and real-life behavioral data. Even though the examples focus on behavior analysis tasks, the covered underlying concepts and methods can be applied in any other domain. No prior knowledge in machine learning is assumed. Basic experience with R and basic knowledge in statistics and high school level mathematics are beneficial.Features
