Course Description

This is a "hands-on" business analytics, or data analytics course teaching how to use the popular, no-cost R software to perform dozens of data mining tasks using real data and data mining cases. It teaches critical data analysis, data mining, and predictive analytics skills, including data exploration, data visualization, and data mining skills using one of the most popular business analytics software suites used in industry and government today. The course is structured as a series of dozens of demonstrations of how to perform classification and predictive data mining tasks, including building classification trees, building and training decision trees, using random forests, linear modeling, regression, generalized linear modeling, logistic regression, and many different cluster analysis techniques. The course also trains and instructs on "best practices" for using R software, teaching and demonstrating how to install R software and RStudio, the characteristics of the basic data types and structures in R, as well as how to input data into an R session from the keyboard, from user prompts, or by importing files stored on a computer's hard drive. All software, slides, data, and R scripts that are performed in the dozens of case-based demonstration video lessons are included in the course materials so students can "take them home" and apply them to their own unique data analysis and mining cases. There are also "hands-on" exercises to perform in each course section to reinforce the learning process. The target audience for the course includes undergraduate and graduate students seeking to acquire employable data analytics skills, as well as practicing predictive analytics professionals seeking to expand their repertoire of data analysis and data mining knowledge and capabilities.
Who this course is for:
Anyone who wants to learn more about performing data analysis using a variety of popular, contemporary data mining techniques.
Data Mining beginners and professionals who wish to enhance their data mining knowledge and skill levelsIndividuals seeking to gain more proficiency using the popular R and RStudio software suites.
Undergraduate students seeking to acquire in-demand analytics skills to enhance employment opportunities.
Graduate students seeking to acquire a wider repertoire of analytics skills for research data analysis tasks.

very clear and well explained.

By Joan on 7/18/2020

Thanks yo Geoffrey, I have made great progress in learning this class. However, since I am a beginner in data mining and machine learning, there is a lot of knowledge that I have no idea theoretically. I hope more theory would be elaborated instead of assuming the learner is advanced in this knowledge.

By Muha Abdullah Al Pavel on 7/7/2020

yes, it is very good so far.

Very well explained in simple language.

By Kirill Konovalov on 1/20/2020

Info and methods of writing the code are updated. Too many explanations are done in answering students' questions, and 7 minutes is spent on the explanation of attached materials. Probably program is a bit outdated so far.
