Description
HEADS UP! This course is now part of The Complete Visual Guide to Machine Learning & Data Science, which combines all 4 Machine Learning courses from Maven Analytics. This course, along with the other individual courses in the series, will be retired soon. If you're excited to explore Data Science & Machine Learning but anxious about learning complex programming languages or intimidated by terms like naive bayes, logistic regression, KNN and decision trees, you're in the right place. This course is PART 2 of a 4-PART SERIES designed to help you build a strong, foundational understanding of Machine Learning: PART 1: QA & Data ProfilingPART 2: Classification ModelingPART 3: Regression & ForecastingPART 4: Unsupervised LearningThis course makes data science approachable to everyday people, and is designed to demystify powerful Machine Learning tools & techniques without trying to teach you a coding language at the same time. Instead, we'll use familiar, user-friendly tools like Microsoft Excel to break down complex topics and help you understand exactly HOW and WHY machine learning works before you dive into programming languages like Python or R. Unlike most Data Science and Machine Learning courses, you won't write a SINGLE LINE of code. COURSE OUTLINE: In this Part 2 course, we'll introduce the supervised learning landscape, review the classification workflow, and address key topics like dependent vs. independent variables, feature engineering, data splitting and overfitting. From there we'll review common classification models including K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naïve Bayes, Decision Trees, Random Forests, Logistic Regression and Sentiment Analysis, and share tips for model scoring, selection, and optimization.
