The Kaggle Book: Data analysis and machine learning for competitive data science: Banachewicz, Konrad, Massaron, Luca, Goldbloom, Anthony: 9781801817479: Amazon.com: Books

You can find lots of information on Kaggle about competing, but it is difficult to know what is relevant and also very expensive in terms of time and effort – so we put all the essential knowledge into one book. Konrad: My favorite part is Chapter 12 on simulation competitions. Reinforcement learning is a field I have been getting into over the last few years – unlike computer vision or NLP, it has yet to reach wider appeal outside academic circles. It was an interesting and educational experience to try and distill what I have learned into a useful introduction to that fascinating domain. Luca: I enjoyed writing about the history of Kaggle and the professional opportunities it offers.
