Machine Learning Basics with Ludwig

We’re going to walk through the basics of machine learning and applying it to the problem of email spam prediction. We are going to do this by loading training data sets, building a few machine learning models and then checking their performance on test data sets. The data sets we are using are small enough to be understandable and the models only have a few features. This makes it easier to puzzle out how the machine learning algorithm and neural networks are interpreting the input and producing the output.
