Course Description
Supervised machine learning is used in many every day applications, including image captioning, forecasting, and machine translation. But, because it’s so widely applicable, there are many different methods that can be used on different kinds of data to solve various styles of classification and prediction. These include regression, neural networks, and decision trees.
All machine learning heavily relies on data. In these lessons, we’ll consider some of the challenges in data collection and preprocessing that a practitioner should consider while building a machine-learning model. We will also review a number of examples of applications of supervised machine learning. You’ll also discover the reasons why supervised machine learning has been so successful, as well as some of the common challenges with using it. These lessons will discuss the most important applications of supervised machine learning including classification, prediction, and forecasting. You’ll also explore artificial neural networks, one of the most common methods used for supervised machine learning.
