Machine Learning
Using Python Application

Introduction

The purpose of the webinar is to let the students enter the machine learning world and let them build their first Predicting Model. Machine Learning is the core of artificial intelligence. is programming computers to optimize a performance criterion using example data or past experience.

Machine learning has been used in several places like the self-driving Google car, the online recommendation engines – friend recommendations on Facebook, offer suggestions from Amazon, and in cyber fraud detection.
