Inhalt |
Machine learning has become one of the core pillars of business analytics. Since the amount of available data is steadily increasing, applying smart data analysis techniques will become more and more important in the future. This course introduces (supervised) machine learning techniques in a hands-on way with integrated exercises. The distinction between supervised/unsupervised/reinforcement learning, sampling and cross-validation, performance evaluation, logistic regression, decision trees, random forest, support vector, machines, deep learning, and ensemble methods are among the topics to be discussed in this course. An integral part of this lecture are integrated exercises during which the students will become familiar with setting up machine learning models in the programming language R. |
