Deep Roots - Book 2: Supervised Machine Learning: Series: Deep Roots: Machine Learning from First Principles (Book 2 of 8)
What if machine learning was taught the way humans actually learn?
Most books on supervised machine learning rush straight into formulas, libraries, and jargon - leaving readers able to run code, but unsure why anything works.
Deep Roots - Book 2: Supervised Machine Learning takes a different path.
This book teaches regression and classification from first principles, starting not with mathematics, but with human reasoning. Through carefully crafted dialogues, everyday analogies, and failure-driven thinking, it helps you understand what problems supervised models are really solving, what assumptions they quietly make, and why they so often fail in the real world.
You won't just learn how to train models.
You'll learn how to think like a problem solver.
Inside this book, you will explore:
What it truly means to "learn from examples"
Why data, labels, and metrics shape reality more than algorithms
How bias, leakage, and overconfidence quietly break models
Why features matter more than model complexity
How to evaluate, deploy, monitor, and trust supervised systems
When humans must stay in the loop - and why automation alone is fragile
Written for beginners, practitioners, and deep thinkers alike, this book is free from hype and intimidation. No unnecessary math. No black boxes. Just clarity, judgment, and insight.
This is not a tutorial.
This is a foundation.
If you want to enter machine learning with confidence - or rebuild your understanding from the ground up - this book was written for you.
