Hello and welcome to the Fundamentals of Machine

Learning with Python course instructed by Saeed Aghabozorgi, Joseph Santarcangelo, and
Azim Hirjani. In this course, you will be introduced to
machine learning and learn how to apply various machine learning algorithms. The instructors for the course
are Saeed Aghabozorgi,
Joseph Santarcangelo, and Azim Hirjani. Saeed Aghabozorgi Ph.D. is a senior AI/ML
Customer Engineer at Google, with a track record of developing enterprise-level solutions
that increase customers’ ability to turn their data into actionable knowledge. He has worked at IBM and
Amazon Web Services. Saeed is also a researcher in the artificial
intelligence and machine learning field. Joseph Santarcangelo has a Ph.D. in Electrical
Engineering. His research focused on using machine learning,
signal processing, and computer vision to determine how videos impact human cognition. Joseph has been
working for IBM since he completed
his Ph.D. And Azim Hirjani is a Data Scientist Intern at
IBM, creating content for various IBM Data Science courses. He is pursuing a BS in Computer Science
from
the University of Toronto. Machine learning is present in many fields
and industries. It is used heavily in the self-driving car
industry to classify objects that a car might encounter while driving, for example, people,
traffic signs, and other cars. Many cloud computer service providers like
IBM and Amazon use machine learning to protect their services. It is used to detect and prevent attacks like
a distributed denial-of-service attack or suspicious and malicious usage. Machine learning is also used to
find trends
and patterns in stock data that can help decide which stocks to trade or which prices to buy
and sell at. Another use for machine learning is to help
identify cancer in patients. Using an x-ray scan of the target area, machine
learning can help detect any potential tumors. This course consists of four modules: Introduction and
Regression, Classification, Clustering, and the Final Project. Each module comprises videos with hands-on
labs to apply what you have learned. The hands-on labs use Jupyter Lab, which is hosted on Skills Network
Labs and
uses the Python programming language and various Python libraries like Pandas, Numpy, and Scikit-Learn.
You will explore different machine learning
algorithms in this course and work with a variety of data sets to help you apply machine
learning. With linear regression, you will work with
an automobile data set to estimate the CO2 emission of cars using various features, and then predict the CO2
emissions of cars
that haven’t even been produced yet. In regression trees, you will work with real
estate data to predict the price of houses. In logistic regression, you will work with
customer data for telecommunication companies and see how machine learning is used to predict
customer loyalty. With K-nearest neighbors you will use telecommunication
customer data to classify customers. For support vector machines, you will classify
human cell samples as benign or malignant. In multiclass prediction, you will work with
the popular iris data set to classify types of flowers. With decision trees, you will build a model
to determine which drugs to prescribe to patients. And finally, with K-means, you will learn
to segment a customer data set into groups of individuals with similar characteristics. In the last module, you
will complete the
final project where you will use many of the classification algorithms to predict rain
in Australia. After completing this course, you will be
able to explain, compare, and contrast various machine learning topics and concepts like supervised
learning, unsupervised learning,
classification, regression, and clustering. You will also be able to describe how the
various machine learning algorithms work. And finally, you will learn how to apply these
machine learning algorithms in Python using various Python libraries.
