I’m investing a lot of time to at least get a little bit of understanding about machine learning. Luckily there is a lot of (free) information out there.
Christopher Bishop, Technical Fellow and Laboratory Director In Microsoft Research Cambridge, shared his book Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning.
This leading textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the fields of pattern recognition and machine learning. It is aimed at advanced undergraduates or first-year PhD students, as well as researchers and practitioners. No previous knowledge of pattern recognition or machine learning concepts is assumed.

Much (machine) learning fun!
