Session Description:

Learn how to kickstart your machine learning journey with this beginner-friendly guide on applying the linear regression algorithm. Build predictive models easily using step-by-step instructions and practical examples.

Setup:

Because this is an abbreviated session, attendees MUST install Anaconda software https://www.anaconda.com/ and have a basic understanding of using Jupyter Notebook.”

Course Code/Duration:

BDT77 / 90 Minutes

Learning Objectives:

Learn about the intuition about Linear Regression algorithm in machine learning for Univariate and Multi-variate data. We will then build a linear regression algorithm to do the following:

• Articulate the core concepts of linear regression for both univariate and multi-variate data.
• Develop a strong intuition about how the regression line captures the relationship between variables.
• Build and train linear regression models using real-world datasets.
• Evaluate model performance using essential metrics, enabling you to gauge the accuracy and reliability of your predictions.
