- A Brief History of Modern AI and its Applications
- Artificial Intelligence is not new, but it is new in a sense that it is easier than ever to get started using Machine Learning in business settings. In this module we will go over a quick introduction to AI and Machine Learning and we will visit a brief history of modern AI. We will also explore some of the current applications of AI and Machine Learning for you to think about how you want to leverage them in your day to day business practice or personal projects.
- Retrieving Data, Exploratory Data Analysis, and Feature Engineering
- Good data is the fuel that powers Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. In this module you will learn how to retrieve data from different sources, how to clean it to ensure its quality, and how to conduct exploratory analysis to visually confirm it is ready for machine learning modeling.
- Inferential Statistics and Hypothesis Testing
- Inferential statistics and hypothesis testing are two types of data analysis often overlooked at early stages of analyzing your data. They can give you quick insights about the quality of your data. They also help you confirm business intuition and help you prescribe what to analyze next using Machine Learning. This module looks at useful definitions and simple examples that will help you get started creating hypothesis around your business problem and how to test them.
