Learn to implement and evaluate machine learning solutions with scikit-learnAbout This VideoMaster popular machine learning models including k-nearest neighbors, random forests, logistic regression, k-means, naive Bayes, and artificial neural networksLearn how to build and evaluate the performance of efficient models using scikit-learnA practical guide to master the basics and learn from real-life applications of machine learningIn DetailMachine learning is the buzzword bringing computer science and statistics together to build smart and efficient models. Using powerful algorithms and techniques offered by machine learning, you can automate any analytical model. This course examines a variety of machine learning models including popular machine learning algorithms such as k-nearest neighbors, logistic regression, naive Bayes, k-means, decision trees, and artificial neural networks. It also discusses data preprocessing, hyperparameter optimization, and ensemble methods. You will build systems that classify documents, recognize images, detect ads, and more. You'll learn to use scikit-learn's API to extract features from categorical variables, text and images; evaluate model performance; and develop an intuition for how to improve your model's performance. By the end of this course, you will master all required concepts of scikit-learn to build efficient models at work to carry out advanced tasks with the practical approach.
