Which machine learning approach do you need?
Find out in fewer than 7 questions

About:


This app was generated using my own mental map of how I decide which machine learning approach(es) I might select to solve a problem. I wrote my mental map into a JSON file, created a decision tree, and then converted that decision tree into a javascript function that helps others reason through their own data science challenges.

The goals of the app:

  • I want this tool to help others understand which analytical approaches might be a great starting point for their app. The result(s) of this survey is an approximation.
  • I want this tool to help connect others with scientists, researchers, and engineers who can help

How it works:

Answer the questions in the survey until you are provided with a recommendation

Flowchart and code:

The flowchart is available on the github repo page as a pdf

What about your book/course/program recommendations?

I have personally used all products endorsed on this page. Many of the resources I point to are free, and a few of them are paid products. I have tried to setup affiliate links for the paid products, but a few of them are here regardless (because they've helped me, and I think they can help you too, regardless of whether or not I'm rewarded for the referral).

Already an expert?


If you are experienced in machine learning or statistics, and would like to be forwarded clients, please complete this form (or git pull? I want to make this as easy as possible...). I have my own area of expertise, and limited amount of bandwidth -- this would be a great opportunity to connect clients with experts, and network ourselves!
