Code-along sessions move you from introductory machine learning concepts to concrete code.

Machine learning is moving from futuristic AI projects to data analysis on your desk. You need to go beyond following along in discussions to coding machine learning tasks. These videos show you how to turn introductory machine learning concepts into concrete code using Python, scikit-learn, and friends.

You learn about the fundamental metrics used to evaluate general learning systems and specific metrics used in classification and regression. You will learn techniques for getting the most informative learning performance measures out of your data. You will come away with a strong toolbox of numerical and graphical techniques to understand how your learning system will perform on novel data.

Learn How To

  • Recognize underfitting and overfitting with graphical plots.
  • Make use of resampling techniques like cross-validation to get the most out of your data.
  • Graphically evaluate the learning performance of learning systems
  • Compare production learners with baseline models over various classification metrics
  • Build and evaluate confusion matrices and ROC curves
  • Apply classification metrics to multi-class learning problems
  • Develop precision-recall and lift curves for classifiers
  • Compare production regression techniques with baseline regressors over various regression metrics
  • Construct residual plots for regressors

This course is a good fit for anyone that needs to improve their fundamental understanding of machine learning concepts and become familiar with basic machine learning code. You might be a newer data scientist, a data analyst transitioning to the use of machine learning models, a research and development scientist looking to add machine learning techniques to your classical statistical training, or a manager adding data science/machine learning capabilities to your team.
