We will discuss basics for using the R programming language to perform machine learning. Basic skills in R are required, but we will look at machine learning basics together. The goal is to go through the whole process of using machine learning from selecting the right data and method to evaluate the results and improve the model.
- Participants understand the basic concepts of what machine learning is
- Participants are able to choose a fitting machine learning method for their problem and implement a basic version in R
- Participants know how to improve a method (parameter tuning, boosting)
- Participants know how to choose and split the input data in a meaningful way
- Participants know how to choose and split the input data in a meaningful way
Lectures, group work, supervised individual work, presenting their results
