This dataset classifies people described by a set of attributes as good or bad credit risks. Using classification techniques, build a model to predict good or bad customers to help the bank decide on granting loans to its customers

Learning Objectives:

Learn about unsupervised learning technique - K-Means Clustering and Hierarchical Clustering. Also understand the Elbow method and Silhouette method.

Topics Covered:

• K-means Clustering
• Hierarchical Clustering
• High-dimensional Clustering
• Case Study

Hands-on:

In marketing, if you’re trying to talk to everybody, you’re not reaching anybody.. This dataset has social posts of teen students. Based on this data, use K-Means clustering to group teen students into segments for targeted marketing campaigns.

Learning Objectives:

Learn about bootstrap sampling and its advantages followed by bagging. Boost model performance with Boosting. Through a real-life case study, learn Random Forest and how it helps avoid overfitting compared to decision trees.

Topics Covered:

• Boosting
  
• Bagging
• Random Forest
• Case Study

Hands-on:

In statistics and machine learning, ensemble methods use multiple learning algorithms to obtain better predictive performance than could be obtained from any of the constituent learning algorithms alone. In this case study, use AdaBoost, GBM & Random Forest on Lending Data to predict loan status. Ensemble the output and see your result perform better than a single model.

Learning Objectives:
