Become a Regression Machine Learning Expert and Put Your Knowledge in Practice

Learning regression machine learning is indispensable for data mining applications in areas such as consumer analytics, finance, banking, health care, science, e-commerce and social media. It is also essential for academic careers in data mining, applied statistical learning or artificial intelligence. And it is necessary for any business forecasting related decision.

But as learning curve can become steep as complexity grows, this course helps by leading you through step by step real world practical examples for greater effectiveness.

Content and Overview

This practical course contains 41 lectures and 5 hours of content. It's designed for all regression machine learning knowledge levels and a basic understanding of Python programming language is useful but not required.

At first, you'll learn how to read data files and perform regression machine learning computing operations by installing related packages and running code on the Python IDE. Next, you'll asses model bias-variance prediction errors trade-off which can potentially lead to its under-fitting or over-fitting. After that, you'll avoid model over-fitting by using cross-validation for optimal parameter selection. Later, you'll evaluate goodness-of-fit through coefficient of determination. Then, you'll test forecasting accuracy through scale-dependent metrics such as mean absolute error and scale-independent ones such as symmetric mean absolute percentage error and mean absolute scaled error.

After that, you'll compute generalized linear models such as linear regression and improve its prediction accuracy through coefficient shrinkage done by Ridge regression and Lasso regression. Next, you'll calculate similarity methods such as k nearest neighbors' regression and increase their forecasting accurateness by selecting optimal number of nearest neighbors. Later, you'll estimate frequency methods such as decision trees regression and advance their estimation precision with ideal number of splits.

Then, you'll approximate ensemble methods such as random forest regression and gradient boosting machine regression in order to expand decision tree regression calculation exactness. Finally, you'll explore maximum margin methods such as support vector machine regression using linear and non-linear or radial basis function kernels and escalate their assessment exactitude with best penalty error term.
