Here's some text from the book "Ensemble Machine Learning", by Ankit Dixit, published by @packtpub. And here's some text from my much earlier(!) book on neural networks. I wonder how much of my whole book they just copied? Annoying.pic.twitter.com/SvFQ003mgC

Such blatant plagiarism is serious business. But what is your book? I cannot find any candidate on Amazon. Go on record with his publisher that he plagiarized you.

For what it’s worth, your book has very high google juice and provided some really useful explanations when I was learning.

I'm also reading your book at the moment, thanks for such clear explanations. You make complex mathematics concepts very intuitive and fun to learn.

packt has a history of plagiarism in their books. If you look at amazon reviews and such you'll find people making similar comparisons

Interesting. Well, I hope at the least that my tweets will make it harder for them to recruit authors.
