Get acquainted with the essentials of Scikit-learn in this part one workshop of Track 4: Scikit-learn led by Francesco Mosconi, who will teach you how to build regression and classification models with Scikit-learn, evaluate model performance and select the right techniques & tools, before jumping into practical, hands-on tutorials in part two.
In this workshop, you will learn:
- Recognize problems that can be solved with Machine Learning
- Select the right technique (is it a classification problem? a regression? needs preprocessing?)
- Load and manipulate data with Pandas
- Build regression and classification models with Scikit-Learn
- Evaluate model performance with Scikit-Learn
Level:
