Abstract

To Implement Machine learning algorithms there are a number of Tools like python, R, Apache Mahout, Cloud-based services etc. In some tools, there are different packages that help us in data preprocessing and implementing machine learning algorithms. So, in this paper, aim to discuss how can use caret package in R software to implement machine learning techniques.
