Using BigML: An Introduction to Machine Learning & BigML

From self-driving cars to predicting stock prices, machine learning has an exciting range of applications. BigML, due to its ease of use, makes these algorithms widely accessible. This course outlines machine learning fundamentals and how these are applied in BigML.

You'll start by examining various machine learning algorithm categories and the kinds of problems they're used to solve. You'll then investigate the classification problem and the process involved in training and evaluating such models. Next, you'll examine linear regression and how this can help predict a continuous value.

Moving on, you'll explore the concept of unsupervised learning and its application in clustering, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and generating associations. Finally, you'll recognize how all of this comes together when using BigML to significantly simplify the building and maintenance of your machine learning models.

Using BigML: Getting Hands-on with BigML

BigML not only provides ease-of-use, but it also offers flexibility in how you work with your data. This course serves as a hands-on introduction to BigML and its vast array of features.

You'll start by exploring the different ways data can be loaded into the platform and how these can be transformed into datasets to train and test a machine learning model. You'll gain practical experience with some of the tools available to help you better understand your data - from histograms and scatterplots to visualizations of value distribution.

Moving on, you'll build a fundamental classification model, a decision tree, which takes employee details and predicts whether they'll stay or leave in the next year. Finally, you'll investigate some possible configurations for this model.

Using BigML: Building Supervised Learning Models

The versatility of BigML allows you to build supervised learning models without much complexity. In this course, you'll practice constructing a selection of supervised learning models using BigML.

You'll start by building an ensemble of decision trees to perform binary classification. Next, you'll build a linear regression model to predict the values of homes in a particular region. You'll then train and evaluate a logistic regression model to illustrate how it can be used to solve similar problems to those solved using ensemble methods.

Another BigML capability you'll explore is building a time series plot to make various forecasts. In each demonstration, you'll delve into some optional configurations for the model being trained. Lastly, you'll use the OptiML feature to find the optimal model for your data.

Using BigML: Unsupervised Learning

BigML includes various unsupervised learning models used to gain insights into your data. These insights can help make pivotal business decisions or act as a starting point to build supervised learning models. In this course, you'll build several unsupervised learning models and analyze the results they produce.

You'll start by creating clusters from a dataset and examining how data points within a cluster share similarities. You'll move on to uncover associations in a dataset about items purchased on an e-commerce platform. Next, you'll apply topic modeling to extract the topics discussed in a collection of texts.

Following this, you'll transform a dataset containing multiple fields into a handful of principal components using Principal Component Analysis, or PCA. Finally, you'll explore the detection of anomalies in your dataset.

Course options

We offer several optional training products to enhance your learning experience. If you are planning to use our training course in preperation for an official exam then whe highly recommend using these optional training products to ensure an optimal learning experience. Sometimes there is only a practice exam or/and practice lab available.

Optional practice exam (trial exam)

To supplement this training course you may add a special practice exam. This practice exam comprises a number of trial exams which are very similar to the real exam, both in terms of form and content. This is the ultimate way to test whether you are ready for the exam. 

Optional practice lab

To supplement this training course you may add a special practice lab. You perform the tasks on real hardware and/or software applicable to your Lab. The labs are fully hosted in our cloud. The only thing you need to use our practice labs is a web browser. In the LiveLab environment you will find exercises which you can start immediatelyThe lab enviromentconsist of complete networks containing for example, clients, servers,etc. This is the ultimate way to gain extensive hands-on experience.
