In this course, you will learn what hyperparameters are, what Genetic Algorithm is, and what hyperparameter optimization is. In this course, you will apply Genetic Algorithm to optimize the performance of Support Vector Machines and Multilayer Perceptron Neural Networks. Hyperparameter optimization will be done on two datasets, a regression dataset for the prediction of cooling and heating loads of buildings, and a classification dataset regarding the classification of emails into spam and non-spam. The SVM and MLP will be applied on the datasets without optimization and compare their results to after their optimization. By the end of this course, you will have learnt how to code Genetic Algorithm in Python and how to optimize your Machine Learning algorithms for maximal performance.

As of January 2017, MIT started offering a variety of course in deep learning.

Finally, a comprehensive hands-on machine learning course with specific focus on classification based models for the investment community and passionate investors. In the past few years, there has been a massive adoption and growth in the use of data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning to find alpha. However, information on and application of machine learning to investment are scarce. This course has been designed to address that. It is meant to spark your creative juices and get you started in this space.

Apple recently announced their partnership with IBM to leverage IBM's Watson service to train machine learning models for CoreML. So that mean you now can build apps that leverage Watson machine learning models on iPhone and iPad, even when your device is offline. Your apps can quickly analyze images, accurately classify visual content, and easily train models using Watson Services. With this video series you will learn to onboard with not only pre-trained Watson models but customize and train models that continuously learn over time. In Apple's own words "You can build apps that seamlessly integrate with IBM Cloud using the IBM Cloud Developer Console for Apple. This allows you to quickly tap into Watson Services for Core ML, as well as other IBM cloud services including authentication, data, analytics, and more. The console provides a catalog of starter kits designed for common frameworks that integrate with IBM Cloud."

It explores main concepts from basic to expert level which can help you achieve better grades, develop your academic career, apply your knowledge at work or do research as experienced investor. Learning stock technical analysis is indispensable for finance careers in areas such as equity research and equity trading. It is also essential for academic careers in quantitative finance. And it is necessary for experienced investors stock technical trading research and development. But as learning curve can become steep as complexity grows, this course helps by leading you step by step using S&P 500 Index ETF prices historical data for back-testing to achieve greater effectiveness.

Python has been one of the premier, flexible, and powerful open-source language that is easy to learn, easy to use, and has powerful libraries for data manipulation and analysis. For over a decade, Python has been used in scientific computing and highly quantitative domains such as finance, oil and gas, physics, and signal processing. Edureka's Python Certification Training not only focuses on fundamentals of Python, Statistics and Machine Learning but also helps one gain expertise in applied Data Science at scale using Python. The training is a step by step guide to Python and Data Science with extensive hands on. The course is packed with several activity problems and assignments and scenarios that help you gain practical experience in addressing predictive modeling problem that would either require Machine Learning using Python.

About this course: Welcome to Practical Time Series Analysis! Many of us are "accidental" data analysts. We trained in the sciences, business, or engineering and then found ourselves confronted with data for which we have no formal analytic training. This course is designed for people with some technical competencies who would like more than a "cookbook" approach, but who still need to concentrate on the routine sorts of presentation and analysis that deepen the understanding of our professional topics. In practical Time Series Analysis we look at data sets that represent sequential information, such as stock prices, annual rainfall, sunspot activity, the price of agricultural products, and more. We look at several mathematical models that might be used to describe the processes which generate these types of data.

Apache Spark lets you apply machine learning techniques to data in real time, giving users immediate machine-learning based insights based on what's happening right now. It's used to create machine learning models and programs that are distributed and much faster compared to standard machine learning toolkits such as R or Python. If you're a data professional who is familiar with machine learning and wants to use Apache Spark for developing efficient and fast machine learning systems, then this learning path is for you. This comprehensive 2-in-1 course teaches you to build machine learning systems, perform analytics, and predictions with Apache Spark. You'll learn through practical demonstrations of use cases, clear explanations, and interesting real-world applications. Each section briefly establishes theoretical basis for the topic under discussion and then cement your understanding with practical use cases.

Here I will be posting some of the data science and machine learning projects that I have been working on. The main motivation for making this blog is that I will soon be starting the Fast AI Deep Learning course. Blogging along with the lectures seemed like a great opportunity for me to be really hands-on with the material and get acquainted with other students. Let me first start by giving you a quick background of my journey into data science. About a year ago I started writing my master thesis for the study Business Administration.

This is a very basic introductory course to the fundamentals of the Scala programming language for anyone new to the language. Scala was derived from Java which is one of the top-five programming languages in the world today. It is a versatile and elegant object –oriented programming language. This means it is class based and treats everything as an object. It has a robust security .
