You’ll get to grips with A/B testing, decision analysis, and linear regression modeling using a Bayesian approach as you analyze real-world advertising, sales, and bike rental data. Finally, you’ll get hands-on with the PyMC3 library, which will make it easier for you to design, fit, and interpret Bayesian models.

Learn all about the advantages of Bayesian data analysis, and apply it to a variety of real-world use cases!

Bayesian Data Analysis in Python

How long does it take for flu symptoms to show after exposure? And what if you don't know when people caught the virus? Do salary and work-life balance influence the speed of employee turnover? Lots of real-life challenges require survival analysis to robustly estimate the time until an event to help us draw insights from time-to-event distributions. This course introduces you to the basic concepts of survival analysis. Through hands-on practice, you’ll learn how to compute, visualize, interpret, and compare survival curves using Kaplan-Meier, Weibull, and Cox PH models. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to model survival distributions, build pretty plots of survival curves, and even predict survival durations.

Use survival analysis to work with time-to-event data and predict survival time.
