Machine learning is the field that teaches machines and computers to learn from existing data to make predictions on new data: Will a tumor be benign or malignant? Which of your customers will take their business elsewhere? Is a particular email spam? In this course, you'll learn how to use Python to perform supervised learning, an essential component of machine learning. You'll learn how to build predictive models, tune their parameters, and determine how well they will perform with unseen data—all while using real world datasets. You'll be using scikit-learn, one of the most popular and user-friendly machine learning libraries for Python.

Learn how to build and tune predictive models and evaluate how well they'll perform on unseen data.

In any data-driven company, you will undoubtedly cross paths with data engineers. Among other things, they facilitate some of your work by making data readily available to everyone within the organization, and possibly in bringing machine learning models into production. One way to speed up this process is through building an understanding of what it means to bring processes into production and what features are of high-grade code. In this course, we’ll be looking at various data pipelines the data engineer is building, and how some of the tools he or she is using can help you in getting your models into production or run repetitive tasks consistently and efficiently.
 
In this course, we illustrate common elements of data engineering pipelines. In Chapter 1, you will learn how to ingest data. Chapter 2 will go one step further with cleaning and transforming data. In Chapter 3, you will learn how to safely deploy code. Finally, in Chapter 4 you will schedule complex dependencies between applications.
 
Building Data Engineering Pipelines covers new technologies and material, so we recommend that you have a strong understanding of the prerequisites to get the most out of this course.
