About this course:
First, let’s get the idea about what Machine Learning, NLP and Python is. Well for starters, Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of computer programs that can access data and use it learn for themselves. Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is an approach to communication, personal development, and psychotherapy created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in California, United States in the 1970s.
Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Its high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or glue language to connect existing components together. In this course students will learn about Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing with Python, Sentiment Analysis, Mitigating Overfitting with Ensemble Learning.
The average salary for Big Data Professional is $69,870 per year.
