Implementing and designing systems that make suggestions to users are among the most popular and essential machine learning applications available. Whether you want customers to find the most appealing items at your online store, videos to enrich and entertain them, or news they need to know, recommendation systems (RecSys) provide the way. In this practical book, authors Bryan Bischof and Hector Yee illustrate the core concepts and examples to help you create a RecSys for any industry or scale. You'll learn the math, ideas, and implementation details you need to succeed. This book includes the RecSys platform components, relevant MLOps tools in your stack, plus code examples and helpful suggestions in PySpark, SparkSQL, FastAPI, and Weights & Biases. Modern recommendation system (often abbreviated RecSys) designs are as diverse as the domains they serve. RecSys consist of the computer software architectures to implement and execute such product goals in addition to the algorithmic components of ranking. Methods for ranking recommendions can come from traditional statistical learning algorithms, linear algebraic inspirations, geometric considerations, and, of course, gradient based methods. Just as the algorithmic methods are diverse, so too are the modeling and evaluation considerations for recommending: personalized ranking, search recommendations, sequence modeling, and the scoring for all of the above are now need-to-know for the working ML Engineer in the space of recommendation systems.

The book builds on the analogy between social groups and assemblies of molecules to introduce the concepts of statistical mechanics, Machine Learning and Data Science. Applying a data analytics approach to molecular systems, we show how individual (molecular) features and interactions between molecules, or "communication" processes, allow for the prediction of properties and collective behavior of molecular systems - just as polling and social networking shed light on the behavior of social groups. Applications to systems at the cutting-edge of research for biological, environmental, and energy applications are also presented. Social networks, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have become part of our daily lives. We live in an era where data analysis is present in all aspects of society and a driving force for many decisions that impact our present and future. While statistics have long played a significant role in numbers-driven domains, the development of novel machine learning algorithms, combined with the increase in computing performance and data storage, has led to a paradigm shift in how we approach and address challenges. For instance, in human health, the concept of precision medicine, which considers the individual features of a patient, has emerged as a promising alternative to one-size-fits-all medical treatments. Similarly, the sampling of opinion through polling methods had been for decades a staple of, for example, commercial and political analyses. It is now complemented by the analysis of data from social networks, which provide a window into human interactions and the interrelation between individual and collective responses.
