Why Machine Learning with Spark?
This course is designed to give you an overview on using Spark for Machine Learning. It includes an intro to Machine Learning and data science, before delving deeper into feature engineering and selection, metrics, pipelines, tuning, and ensemble modelling. The course provides real-world examples to allow you to understand Machine Learning in Spark in applied context.
We use a three-step method - all concepts are explained, then demonstrated, before you try it out for yourselves.
