根据《纽约时报》的说法，“在硅谷招募机器学习工程师、数据科学家的情形，越来越像NFL选拔职业运动员，没有苛刻的训练很难上场了。”毕竟，高达124472美元的平均年薪可不是谁想挣就能挣到的。

正如职业运动员每天都要训练一样，机器学习的日常练习也是工程师生涯得以大踏步前进的基本保障。仅2017年一年，机器学习领域总结此类实战经验的文章便已超过20000篇，该领域相关职位的热度自是可见一斑。

从中，我们筛选出50篇最好的经验和心得，囊括了机器学习在15大细分领域的各项典型应用：

图像处理

风格迁移

图像分类

面部识别

视频稳像

目标检测

自动驾驶

推荐系统

AI游戏

AI棋手

AI医疗

AI语音

AI音乐

自然语言处理
