Machine learning is one of the hottest topics in tech today. It is a must-have organizational competency in the data-driven era of digital transformation. Despite the unprecedented speed and ease of creating predictive models today, the human mind is still essential for generating and maintaining trustworthy machine learning models. In this demo intensive session, we will walk through how machine learning algorithms work. Participants will be introduced to fundamental machine learning terms, concepts, and techniques. We will cover the entire project machine learning life-cycle from selecting the right types of problems to solve to preparing data properly, building models, understanding results, and evaluating model performance.

You will learn:

  • Machine learning lingo
  • How machine learning models are made
  • Tips to avoid making beginner mistakes
