Build A Predictive Machine Learning Model – Workshop by IBM

Build a Predictive Machine Learning Model

ML in broader sense is an optimization problem. In this workshop, you will learn about the fundamentals of Machine Learning and with this sound basics, you will step into the understanding of Machine Learning as an optimization problem. You will be introduced to various algorithmns and hyper parameters associated with it. You will get a hands-on experience of creating a ML model, parameter optimization, and exposing the model as an API endpoint.

We will have credit history based loan defaulter prediction as a reference dataset.

Prerequisites for the workshop:

Experience in programming (Python or R)
IBM Cloud Account(must pre-register(Free) for IBM Cloud here:https://ibm.biz/DataHackSummit)
Must carry laptops(Any laptop should suffice)
