The Machine Learning Blog takes a look back at 2015 with a quick look at its 10 most popular posts last year, based on audience views. They range from “Announcing the availability of the Microsoft Data Science Virtual Machine” to a “New edX course: Data Science & Machine Learning Essentials.”

The No. 1 post on the list is Fun with ML, Stream Analytics and PowerBI – Observing Virality in Real Time, which covers the APIs available in the Azure Machine Learning Gallery, including Project Oxford. You can see some of those APIs in the image above.

During the year, the focus of this blog expanded from machine learning exclusively to broader data science and advanced analytics.
