Choosing the Right Machine Learning Algorithm – Hacker Noon

Machine learning is part art and part science. When you look at machine learning algorithms, there is no one solution or one approach that fits all. There are several factors that can affect your decision to choose a machine learning algorithm. Some problems are very specific and require a unique approach. E.g. if you look at a recommender system, it's a very common type of machine learning algorithm and it solves a very specific kind of problem. While some other problems are very open and need a trial & error approach.
