Throughout the course, you'll explore key skills and concepts including regression analysis, binary and multiclass classification, model performance, generalization, hyperparameter tuning, and feature engineering, among others. You'll also gain practical experience dealing with imbalanced datasets, implementing dimensionality reduction techniques, and understanding ensemble learning methods. The course is rich with hands-on useful labs and group activities that focus on core skills, problem solving techniques and real-world application using data-driven solutions and best practices. You’ll leave the course ready to jump into any machine learning project in a meaningful way, able to design, train, evaluate, and fine-tune powerful machine learning models right out of the gate, using the most efficient tools, tech and best practices available today.
Is This The Right Course?
To ensure a smooth learning experience and maximize the benefits of attending this course, you should have the following prerequisite skills:
- Python Programming: Students should have a strong understanding of the Python programming language. This includes the syntax of the language, how to define and use functions, and how to work with Python's built-in data structures like lists and dictionaries.
- Basic Statistics (helpful but not required): A foundational understanding of statistics is crucial for many data science concepts. Students should be familiar with concepts such as mean, median, standard deviation, correlation, and the basics of statistical inference.
- Data Analysis: Experience with exploratory data analysis, including the ability to manipulate and analyze data, is crucial. This includes skills like cleaning data, investigating distributions and correlations, and creating visualizations.
- Basic Machine Learning Knowledge: While the course will likely delve into machine learning in detail, having a basic understanding of what machine learning is and the types of problems it can solve will be useful. This includes familiarity with concepts such as training data, testing data, overfitting, underfitting, and cross-validation.
Who Should Attend?
This course is ideally suited for Python developers, data analysts, and aspiring data scientists looking to expand their skills into AI and Machine Learning. It is also highly beneficial for product managers and business leaders aiming to acquire a hands-on understanding of AI's impact on product development and business strategy.
