BUAD 5072 - Machine Learning I

(4) Prerequisite(s): BUAD5052 - Probability and Statistics for Business Analytics

This course is designed to provide students with a deep understanding of the theory and practice of Regression and Classification, two of the most commonly used techniques in the Data Scientist’s toolkit. These Predictive Analytics techniques are important members of a family of analytics often referred to as Machine Learning techniques. An important part of this course is the use of a software package called R, which is used extensively in labs and assignments in this class and subsequently reappears in other classes throughout the program.
