Python Introduction to Machine Learning: Parts 1-2

Overview

This workshop introduces students to scikit-learn, the popular machine learning library in Python, as well as the auto-ML library built on top of scikit-learn, TPOT. The focus will be on scikit-learn syntax and available tools to apply machine learning algorithms to datasets.

Prior knowledge: We will assume a basic knowledge of Python and a basic understanding of machine learning techniques. No theory instruction will be provided.

Tech requirement: Laptop required. Please make sure Python 3 is installed, as well as the following packages:

• scikit-learn

• jupyter

• tpot
