コース説明

Many times in machine learning, the goal is to find patterns in data without trying to make predictions. This is called unsupervised learning. One common use case of unsupervised learning is grouping consumers based on demographics and purchasing history to deploy targeted marketing campaigns. Another example is wanting to describe the unmeasured factors that most influence crime differences between cities. This course provides a basic introduction to clustering and dimensionality reduction in R from a machine learning perspective, so that you can get from data to insights as quickly as possible.

前提条件

Introduction to R

1

Unsupervised learning in R

The k-means algorithm is one common approach to clustering. Learn how the algorithm works under the hood, implement k-means clustering in R, visualize and interpret the results, and select the number of clusters when it's not known ahead of time. By the end of the chapter, you'll have applied k-means clustering to a fun "real-world" dataset!

Welcome to the course!

Hierarchical clustering

Hierarchical clustering is another popular method for clustering. The goal of this chapter is to go over how it works, how to use it, and how it compares to k-means clustering.

Dimensionality reduction with PCA

Principal component analysis, or PCA, is a common approach to dimensionality reduction. Learn exactly what PCA does, visualize the results of PCA with biplots and scree plots, and deal with practical issues such as centering and scaling the data before performing PCA.

4

Putting it all together with a case study

The goal of this chapter is to guide you through a complete analysis using the unsupervised learning techniques covered in the first three chapters. You'll extend what you've learned by combining PCA as a preprocessing step to clustering using data that consist of measurements of cell nuclei of human breast masses.

Introduction to the case study

Preparing the data

Exploratory data analysis

Performing PCA

Interpreting PCA results

Variance explained

PCA review and next steps

Communicating PCA results

Hierarchical clustering of case data

Results of hierarchical clustering

Selecting number of clusters

k-means clustering and comparing results

Clustering on PCA results
