Explore the fundamental techniques used for predictive analytics, including regression, classification, clustering, optimization and simulation. Beginning with basic models for revealing and establishing relationships, learn to apply increasingly sophisticated modeling techniques for practical data analysis. Learn about commonly encountered problems so you can determine the fit and usefulness for prediction of your models, and then apply them to typical business problems.
Learn how to perform basic forecasting using time-based data to predict future values from a model, and find out how to model and calculate scenarios based on distance and space. Get practice with classification, including naive Bayesian classification. Learn to create basic decision trees and use various techniques for clustering and linear optimization to solve common business problems. Plus, learn methods for assessing the effectiveness of your solutions.
