Course Overview

This five day, instructor led intensive Python for Machine Learning (ML) training course in Washington, DC Metro, Tysons Corner, VA, Columbia, MD or Live Online, teaches attendees ML concepts, including supervised and unsupervised learning, regression, classification, and clustering. Students learn how to implement ML algorithms in Python, a popular programming language for machine learning. At the completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand machine learning as a useful tool for predictive models
  • Know when to reach for machine learning as a tool
  • Implement data preprocessing for an ML workflow
  • Understand the difference between supervised and unsupervised tasks
  • Implement several classification algorithms
  • Evaluate model performance using a variety of metrics
  • Compare models across a workflow
  • Implement regression algorithm variations
  • Understand clustering approaches to data
  • Interpret labels generated from clustering
  • Transform unstructured text data into structured data
  • Understand text-specific data preparation
  • Visualize frequency data from text sources
  • Perform topic modeling on a collection of documents
