Statistics You Need to Know for Machine Learning
SHOW MORE ﹀
When it comes to using data, there are two main camps, traditional statistics and machine learning, and the two camps complement each other. Statistics remains highly relevant, irrespective of the "bigness" of data. Its role remains what it has always been, but it is even more important now. There is a need to transition from traditional statistical modeling to the machine learning world. This course introduces the statistical background necessary for machine learning using SAS Viya. Knowledge of statistics relevant to machine learning will prepare you to become a data scientist. The course prepares you for future instruction on doing machine learning (including its underlying methodology that has statistical foundations) and enables you to develop a deeper understanding of machine learning models.
This course is a prerequisite to many of the courses in the data science curriculum. A more advanced treatment of machine learning occurs in the courses Machine Learning Using SAS Viya, Interactive Machine Learning in SAS Viya, SAS Visual Statistics in SAS Viya: Interactive Model Building, and Supervised Machine Learning Procedures Using SAS Viya in SAS Studio.
For students interested in statistics for inference and explanatory analysis used in scientific and medical research, Statistics 1: Introduction to ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression is an appropriate foundational course.

This curriculum uniquely integrates both sides – both the business and tech know-how – that are essential for deploying machine learning.
COURSE
Launching Machine Learning: Delivering Operational Success with Gold Standard ML Leadership
SHOW MORE ﹀
This course will guide you to lead or participate in the end-to-end implementation of machine learning (aka predictive analytics). Unlike most machine learning courses, it prepares you to avoid the most common management mistake that derails machine learning projects: jumping straight into the number crunching before establishing and planning for a path to operational deployment.
Whether you'll participate on the business or tech side of a machine learning project, this course delivers essential, pertinent know-how. You'll learn the business-level fundamentals needed to ensure the core technology works within – and successfully produces value for – business operations. If you're more a quant than a business leader, you’ll find this is a rare opportunity to ramp up on the business side, since technical ML trainings don’t usually go there. But know this: The soft skills are often the hard ones.
COURSE
Machine Learning Under the Hood: The Technical Tips, Tricks, and Pitfalls
SHOW MORE ﹀
This course will show you how machine learning works. It covers the foundational underpinnings, the way insights are gleaned from data, how we can trust these insights are reliable, and how well predictive models perform – which can be established with pretty straightforward arithmetic. These are things every business professional needs to know, in addition to the quants.
And this course continues beyond machine learning standards to also cover cutting-edge, advanced methods, as well as preparing you to circumvent prevalent pitfalls that seldom receive the attention they deserve. The course dives deeply into these topics, and yet remains accessible to non-technical learners and newcomers.
