Maybe add statements about what we want people to try? E.g. try to use one of our samples to solve a problem you have, and then tell us how it went?

Please add pointers to samples, documentation and known issues. #Pending


This initial release contains core ML.NET components for enabling machine learning pipelines:

* ML Data Structures (e.g. `IDataView`, `LearningPipeline`)
* TextLoader (loading data from a text file into a `LearningPipeline`)

TextLoader

* Transforms (to get data in the correct format for training):
* Processing/featurizing text: `TextFeaturizer`
* Schema modifcation: `ColumnConcatenator`, `ColumnSelector`, and `ColumnDropper`
* Working with categorical features: `CategoricalOneHotVectorizer` and `CategoricalHashOneHotVectorizer`
* Dealing with missing data: `MissingValueHandler`
* Filters: `RowTakeFilter`, `RowSkipFilter`, `RowRangeFilter`
* Feature selection: `FeatureSelectorByCount` and `FeatureSelectorByMutualInformation`
* Learners (to train machine learning models) for a variety of tasks:
* Binary classification: `FastTreeBinaryClassifier`, `StochasticDualCoordinateAscentBinaryClassifier`, `AveragedPerceptronBinaryClassifier`, `BinaryLogisticRegressor`, `FastForestBinaryClassifier`, `LinearSvmBinaryClassifier`, and `GeneralizedAdditiveModelBinaryClassifier`
* Multiclass classification: `StochasticDualCoordinateAscentClassifier`, `LogisticRegressor`, and`NaiveBayesClassifier`
* Regression: `FastTreeRegressor`, `FastTreeTweedieRegressor`, `StochasticDualCoordinateAscentRegressor`, `OrdinaryLeastSquaresRegressor`, `OnlineGradientDescentRegressor`, `PoissonRegressor`, and `GeneralizedAdditiveModelRegressor`
* Evaluators (to check the model works well):

to check the model works well [](start = 14, length = 29)

To check how well does the model perform #Resolved

* For Binary classification: `BinaryClassificationEvaluator`
* For Multiclass classification: `ClassificationEvaluator`
* For Regression: `RegressionEvaluator`

Additional components have been included in the repository but cannot be used in `LearningPipeline` yet (this will be updated in future releases).
