Introduction to Machine Learning in R (2-days workshop)

A workshop for people who are beginning their association with artificial intelligence (AI). You will be introduced to modern machine learning techniques from the ground up. Machine learning is currently used in many companies from different sectors of the economy, and the number of applications and demand for services related to it is still growing. This innovative area has applications in many fields: business, science, marketing, computer science. Every day we can observe many examples of how machine learning works: autocorrect while typing, spam filtering, gene sequence analysis, sales prediction, market research, clustering of shoppers, virtual assistants on websites. The training will be continued at the course on deep learning in R and is a live workshop with a progress check for participants and an opportunity to ask questions. Participants will receive an electronic certificate of completion after successfully passing the workshop.

Date: to be agreed with the client (2-days online workshop).
