This text covers all of the data science, machine learning, and deep
learning topics relevant to materials science and engineering,
accompanied by numerous examples and applications. Almost all methods
and algorithms introduced are implemented “from scratch” using
Python and NumPy. The book starts with an introduction to statistics
and probabilities, explaining important concepts such as random
variables and probability distributions, Bayes’ theorem and
correlations, sampling techniques, and exploratory data analysis, and
puts them in the context of materials science and engineering.
Therefore, it serves as a valuable primer for both undergraduate and
graduate students, as well as a review for research scientists and
practicing engineers. The second part provides an in-depth
introduction of (statistical) machine learning. It begins with
outlining fundamental concepts and proceeds to explore a variety of
supervised learning techniques for regression and classification,
including advanced methods such as kernel regression and support
vector machines. The section on unsupervised learning emphasizes
principal component analysis, and also covers manifold learning (t-SNE
and UMAP) and clustering techniques. Additionally, feature
engineering, feature importance, and cross-validation are introduced.
The final part on neural networks and deep learning aims to promote an
understanding of these methods and dispel misconceptions that they are
a “black box”. The complexity gradually increases until fully
connected networks can be implemented. Advanced techniques and network
architectures, including GANs, are implemented “from scratch”
using Python and NumPy, which facilitates a comprehensive
understanding of all the details and enables the user to conduct their
own experiments in Deep Learning.
