Machine learning is the most exciting branch of artificial intelligence. It allows systems to learn from data by identifying patterns and making decisions with little to no human intervention. In this course, you'll navigate the machine learning lifecycle by getting hands-on practice training your first machine learning model. Join instructor Kesha Williams as she explores widely adopted machine learning methods: supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement. There's a focus on sourcing and preparing data and selecting the best learning algorithm for your project. After training a model, learn to evaluate model performance using standard metrics. Finally, Kesha shows you how to streamline the process by building a machine learning pipeline.
