Machine learning A-team: TensorFlow, Apache Spark MLlib, MOA and more - JAXenter

Machine learning is gaining momentum and whether we want to admit it or not, it has become an essential part of our lives. As Adam Geitgey, Director of Software Engineering at Groupon, told JAXenter a few months ago, "anyone who knows how to program can use machine learning tools to solve problems." I think that in five years, machine learning won't be thought of as "magic" anymore. It will be a very common tool that nearly all programmers use to solve problems – just like how most programmers today know about databases and networking. Geitgey explained that even if you don't need a deep mathematical background to be able to apply machine learning, learning Python --"by far the most popular programming language today for machine learning"-- is a must.
