Machine learning is the study and application of algorithms that learn from and make predictions on data. From search results to self-driving cars, it has manifested itself in all areas of our lives and is one of the most exciting and fast growing fields of research in the world of data science. This course teaches the big ideas in machine learning: how to build and evaluate predictive models, how to tune them for optimal performance, how to preprocess data for better results, and much more. The popular <code>caret</code> R package, which provides a consistent interface to all of R's most powerful machine learning facilities, is used throughout the course.

This course teaches the big ideas in machine learning like how to build and evaluate predictive models.

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.
