Real data science problems with Python

🚀 Real Data Science Problems with Python 🤓

Dive into the world of data science and machine learning with a course that brings theory into practice! "Real Data Science Problems with Python" is designed for students who already have a grasp of Python and some data science techniques, ready to tackle real-world problems using Python.

Course Overview:

This course leverages datasets from various sources such as Kaggle, US Data.gov, and CrowdFlower. Each lecture demonstrates how to effectively preprocess data, model it with appropriate machine learning techniques, and evaluate performance in real scenarios. You'll learn not only by following along but also by understanding which technique suits best for certain problems through hands-on experience.

What You'll Learn:

• Realistic Data Handling: Practice on real datasets from various domains like finance, healthcare, and more, which are more challenging and rewarding than synthetic data.
• Preprocessing Techniques: Master the art of cleaning and preparing your data for modeling.
• Model Evaluation: Learn to measure the success of your models in real contexts.
• Diverse Machine Learning Models: Explore a range of techniques including Convolutional neural networks, Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes classifiers, Adaboost, SVMs, Random Forests, and more!
• Practical Tools: Get hands-on experience with the most popular data science libraries like Scikit-learn, Keras-Theano, Pandas, and OpenCV.

Real-World Applications:

• Economics: Predicting GDP based on socio-economic variables.
• Computer Vision: Detecting human gestures and parts in images, as well as object tracking in real-time video.
• Natural Language Processing (NLP): Sentiment analysis using Twitter data and spam detection in SMS messages.
• Time Series Forecasting: Predicting London property prices, house prices in US counties, nuclear output of US reactors, and more!

Key Highlights:

• Interactive Lectures: Each lecture includes step-by-step guidance on how to approach real problems, preprocess the data, apply machine learning techniques, and interpret the results.
• Real Data: Work with actual datasets from various sources that will challenge you to think critically about data science problems.
• Performance Evaluation: Learn how to evaluate your models and understand their performance in different contexts.
• Community Engagement: Download lectures for offline learning or while on the move. Plus, you can reach out with any questions!

Why This Course?

Many students struggle with the transition from theoretical knowledge of data science and machine learning to real-world applications. This course bridges that gap by providing a comprehensive, hands-on experience with real datasets and problems. You'll not only improve your data science skills but also develop an intuitive sense of how to approach and solve real-life issues.
