About this event

Brought to you by NCI in partnership with Intersect and delivered by Intersect.

Machine Learning (ML) is a new way to program computers to solve real world problems. It has gained popularity over the last few years by achieving tremendous success in tasks that we believed only humans could solve, from recognising images to self-driving cars. In this course, we will explore the fundamentals of Machine Learning from a practical perspective with the help of the R programming language and its scientific computing packages.

This course is targeted at NOVICES to Machine Learning. You'll learn:

  • Comprehensive introduction to Machine Learning models and techniques such as Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor and Dimensionality Reduction.
  • Know the differences between various core Machine Learning models.
  • Understand the Machine Learning modelling workflows.
  • Use R and its relevant packages to process real datasets, train and apply Machine Learning models
