Python and R have seen immense growth in popularity in the "Machine Learning Age". They both are high-level languages that are easy to learn and write. The language you use will depend on your background and field of study and work. R is a language made by and for statisticians, whereas Python is a more general purpose programming language. Regardless of the background, there will be times when a particular algorithm is implemented in one language and not the other, a feature is better documented, or simply, the tutorial you found online uses Python instead of R.

In either case, this would require the R user to work in Python to get his/her work done, or try to understand how something is implemented in Python for it to be translated into R. This course helps you cross the R-Python language barrier.

Scientists seek to answer questions using rigorous methods and careful observations. These observations—collected from the likes of field notes, surveys, and experiments—form the backbone of a statistical investigation and are called data. Statistics is the study of how best to collect, analyze, and draw conclusions from data. It is helpful to put statistics in the context of a general process of investigation: 1) identify a question or problem; 2) collect relevant data on the topic; 3) analyze the data; and 4) form a conclusion. In this course, you'll focus on the first two steps of the process.

For example, you'll learn how to apply supervised learning algorithms to detect fraudulent behavior similar to past ones, as well as unsupervised learning methods to discover new types of fraud activities. Moreover, in fraud analytics you often deal with highly imbalanced datasets when classifying fraud versus non-fraud, and during this course you will pick up some techniques on how to deal with that. The course provides a mix of technical and theoretical insights and shows you hands-on how to practically implement fraud detection models. In addition, you will get tips and advice from real-life experience to help you prevent making common mistakes in fraud analytics.

Learn to detect fraud with Python by resampling imbalanced data, supervised learning techniques, segmentation, K-means, data mining, and topic modeling.

Fraud Detection in Python

Data scientists can experience huge benefits by learning concepts from the field of software engineering, allowing them to more easily reutilize their code and share it with collaborators. In this course, you'll learn all about the important ideas of modularity, documentation, & automated testing, and you'll see how they can help you solve Data Science problems quicker and in a way that will make future you happy. You'll even get to use your acquired software engineering chops to write your very own Python package for performing text analytics.

Learn about modularity, documentation, and automated testing to help you solve data science problems more quickly and reliably.

Software Engineering for Data Scientists in Python

The decisions we make in life are guided by our principles. No one is born with a life philosophy, instead everyone creates their own over time. In this course, you will develop a set of principles for your data science and software development projects. These principles will save time, prevent frustration, and build your confidence as a data scientist and software developer. In addition to best practices in the Python programming language, You will learn to leverage hidden gems in the Python standard library and well-known tools from Python's excellent ecosystem, such as pandas and scikit-learn. The time you invest in this course will yield dividends for you and others throughout your career. Your colleagues, community members, and future self will thank you.

Learn to develop a set of principles for your data science and software development projects.
