Fundamentals of AI & ML: Foundational Data Science Methods

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Data science methods are used across several industries to deliver value to businesses. Machine learning (ML) is a data science method that uses prediction algorithms that find patterns in massive amounts of data, allowing machines to predict future results and make decisions with minimal human intervention. Through this course, learn foundational methods for using machine learning. In this course, you will examine what machine learning is, how it is categorized, and some everyday use cases for supervised and unsupervised machine learning. Then you will discover feature engineering and its impact on model performance. Next, focus on common types of machine learning tasks, such as clustering, classification, and simple and multiple linear regression. Finally, explore various machine learning challenges and how to overcome them. Upon completion, you will be able to define machine learning and methods for using it.
