Machine Learning with Python : Guided Self-Paced November 2020

Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience (historical data) without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of computer programs and statistical models that can access data, find patterns, and use it for predictions. In simple terms, Understanding the patterns in the data and formulating the common patterns in the form of a re-usable equation, which can be later used for prediction, to build pro-active business strategies.

How do we measure the impact of the training?

• Post-training assessment for all the participants.
• Project assignments after each module
• Multiple quizzes in each module.

Course Delivery Plan

• The training has four major phases in each concept discussion:
• Theory, Demo, in-class exercise, and project assignment.
• The algorithm theory will be explained first. The instructor will take a dataset and demonstrate the concept on a dataset. In the third phase, participants will try the code on a new dataset. In the fourth phase, a real-time dataset will be considered and floated as a project.
