Course description

This course starts by introducing Artificial Intelligence in general, and shortly dives into a high-level overview of R-basics. Many important data analytic topics are introduced: text mining, linear modelling, polynomial regression, clustering, classification trees, SVM, Neural Networks. Also, measuring accuracy and explaining models to your (non-tech savvy) environment is covered. All topics are demonstrated live using R, and contain pointers to further interesting reads.

Learning objective

Upon completion of this training, participants will have a good understanding of what Data Science constitutes, and are kick-started to trying it out for themselves.
