Course Description
Are you an aspiring data scientist determined to achieve professional success?
Are you ready and willing to master the most valuable skills that will skyrocket your data science career?
Great! You’ve come to the right place.
This course will provide you with the solid Machine Learning knowledge that will help you reach your dream job destination.
That’s right. Machine Learning is one of the fundamental skills you need to become a data scientist. It is the stepping stone that will help you understand deep learning and modern data analysis techniques.
In this course, we will explore the three most fundamental machine learning topics:
Linear regression
Logistic regression
Cluster analysis
Surprised? Even neural networks geeks (like us) can’t help, but admit that it’s these 3 simple methods - linear regression, logistic regression and clustering that data science actually revolves around.
So, in this course, we will make an otherwise complex subject matter easy to understand and apply in practice.
Of course, there is only one way to teach these skills in the context of data science - to accompany statistics theory with practical application of these quantitative methods in Python.
And that’s precisely what we are after. Theory and practice go hand in hand here.
We have developed this course with not one but two machine learning libraries – StatsModels and sklearn. As our practical experience showed us, they have different use cases and should be used together rather than independently.
Yet another advantage of taking this course? We are very conscious that data science theory is often overlooked.You can’t teach someone to run before they know how to walk. That’s why we will start slowly and continue by building complex ML models.
But don’t assume you’ll be bored by theory.
On the contrary! We have prepared a course that will get you results and will foster your interest in the subject matter, as it will show you that machine learning is something you can do, too (with the right teacher by your side).
Well, we hope you are as excited as we are, as this course is the door that can open countless opportunities in the data science world for you. This is a course you’ll be actually eager to complete.
On top of that we are happy to offer a 30-day money back guarantee. No risk for you. The content of the course is so outstanding , that this is a no-brainer for us We are 100% certain you will love it.
Why wait any longer? Every day is a missed opportunity.

Thanks for Sharing this knowledge . When I was trying to teach myself ML by looking at other code in Kaggle I was always wondering what these codes are doing and why they are even there . Now I know why :-)

So far so good. I could give detailed feedback when I reach difficult subjects as the course progresses. Now only I'm at the beginning of the whole course. However, I have a positive expectation as I've taken other course of the instructor before, which was pretty good.

This course really teach you in an easy way to understand what is the ML doing. Only that I can't access the dropbox site, it is blocked by my company, I have use my own PC to download the resources.

Although my English skill is not good, I could understand well enough because of its plain English. Funny illustration and animation made the some lectures heartwarming. It was easy to understand the Python cording, but it was difficult to look at the cording because the screen capturing was a bit far away. It was a pretty satisfying course. Thanks so much!

Statistical Modelling is the base of Modern Machine Learning Algorithms. The intention behind taking this course is to explore different libraries than "Sklearn" and see the result on a given problem. Compare the result with that produces by Sklearn library and choose the better one from them based on Ease of Interpretation and Accuracy. This course is covering both of the mentioned objectives with multiple examples for concept practice with ease of explanation of each concept.

Successfully gained more knowledge than expected. My main reason to join the course was to understand linear and logistic regression. But K-Means was explained as well which was a bonus and I figured some new tricks and techniques which I was not aware of. Highly recommended for people who want to start machine learning with no knowledge of linear and logistic regression and K-means clustering.

Awesome Tutorial, I really suggest if you are a beginner then start with this course to understand about Regression, Classification and Clustering and Practice the examples. I really enjoyed the course, Thanks a lot for the awesome course.
By Arne Scheunemann on 12/5/2019
Good material and very clear pronunciation – but in parts over paced and then to little hints for getting better background. But in general, a very worthwhile curse on the subject gets you fast to the intuition with the test statistics. The python part gives a nice entry point for real projects or actually knowing where to start with sklearn, very cool. Nice would have been if the 2 feature sets just also been plotted 3d, it is still possible to visualize I think this would have been nice.

One of the best course I have ever taken on regression. I have really enjoyed the course. The exercises are pretty awesome and well structured. Though I believe the course is complete but I have one request to the author that to include a step wise regression methodology which make this course 110% complete. 100% recommended course.

UNDERRATED This is an excellent course in the world of Machine Learning. - Linear + Multi Regression is excellent. - The explanation of 'standardization' is amazing! - In fact, many explanations with great visuals - lot of work! - In practice, I don't like Clusters, but the material was great. - The math behind Logistic Regression is fantastic. - I'm not convinced about Statsmodels for Logistic Regression and prefer Scikit-Learn. - Tutor seems to math-proficient. Awesome course! Thanks!
