Summary; Advanced undergraduate and graduate students in the physical sciences and their lecturers; Also available in print N2 - This book presents machine learning (ML) concepts with a hands-on approach for physicists. The goal is to both educate and enable a larger part of the community with these skills. This will lead to wider applications of modern ML techniques in physics. Accessible to physical science students, the book assumes a familiarity with statistical physics but little in the way of specialized computer science background. All chapters start with a simple introduction to the basics and the foundations, followed by some examples, and then proceeds to provide concrete examples with associated codes from a GitHub repository. Many of the code examples provided can be used as is or with suitable modification by the students for their own applications UR - https://iopscience.iop.org/book/mono/978-0-7503-4957-4 ER -
