About the course

This repository is for use with the Pearson Publishing (Safari) live webinars:

• Beginner Machine Learning with scikit-learn
• Diving Deeper into Machine Learning with scikit-learn
• Advanced Machine Learning with scikit-learn

Versions of this material are used by other training provided by David Mertz and KDM Training.

If you have attended one of the webinars using this material, I encourage you to complete the survey on it at: Machine Learning with scikit-learn survey. As folks fill this out, we will fold back the updated answers into the dataset used in the lessons themselves.

Installing training materials

Before attending this course, please configure the environments you will need. Within the repository, find the file requirements.txt to install software using pip, or the file environment.yml to install software using conda. I.e.:

$ conda env create -f environment.yml
$ conda activate Pearson-ML
(Pearson-ML) $ jupyter notebook Outline.ipynb

Or

$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ jupyter notebook Outline.ipynb

A quicker way to do this, is probably to use it within Binder. Just launch:
