Course Description
Tidymodels is a powerful suite of R packages designed to streamline machine learning workflows. Learn to split datasets for cross-validation, preprocess data with tidymodels' recipe package, and fine-tune machine learning algorithms. You'll learn key concepts such as defining model objects and creating modeling workflows. Then, you'll apply your skills to predict home prices and classify employees by their risk of leaving a company.
