從結構化和非結構化數據中預測分析發現隱藏的
模式，可用於商業智能決策。
禮薩·卡裡姆著的《TensorFlow預測分析(影印
版)(英文版)》將通過在三個主要部分中運用Tensor
Flow，幫助你構建、調優和部署預測模型。第一部分
包括預測建模所需的線性代數、統計學和概率論知識
。
第二部分包括運用監督(分類和回歸)和無監督(
聚類)算法開發預測模型。然後介紹如何開發自然語
言處理(NLP)預測模型以及強化學習算法。最後．該
部分講述如何開發一個基於機器的因式分解推薦繫統
。
第三部分介紹高級預測分析的深度學習架構，包
括深度神經網絡以及高維和序列數據的遞歸神經網絡
。最終，使用卷積神經網絡進行預測建模，用於情緒
識別、圖像分類和情感分析。
