Course schedule

1
Data import and preprocessing

  • Python / Anaconda / Jupyter Notebook development environment.
  • Pandas: analysis of tabular data (CSV, Excel...), statistics, pivots, joins, filters.
  • Handling missing values: imputation by mean, median, interpolation, knn...
  • Outlier processing: graphical analysis, IQR method, Z-score.
  • Standardization.
  • Standardization: Skewness and Kurtosis.
  • Unbalanced data: Undersampling, Oversampling, SMOTE.
Hands-on work
Handling Python in a Jupyter notebook. Practical exercise with pandas. Implementation of all pre-processing using specific Python libraries.

2
Model training and evaluation

  • The most common supervised and unsupervised learning models.
  • Model training with Scikit-learn.
  • Evaluation methods: choosing the right metrics for each problem.
Hands-on work
Train several supervised and unsupervised models, compare performance and select the best model.

3
Model optimization and performance logging

  • Presentation of the Optuna and Hyperopt libraries.
  • Presentation of the Grid Search approach for identifying the best hyper-parameters in a model.
  • Log hyper-parameters and performance in Mlflow.
Hands-on work
Optimization of the models developed in the previous section and logging of metrics/hyperparameters in Mlflow.

4
Model and Data Drift

  • Interest in checking the Drift model and Data Drift.
  • Introducing the Evidently and Streamlit libraries.
Hands-on work
Implementation of an Evidently Dashboard to monitor data drift.

5
Industrialization: deployment in the cloud

  • Introduction to the AWS EC2 service.
  • Introducing Flask for the for making a machine learning model available via an API.
  • Presentation of various tools for connecting to the virtual environment, such as Putty, Visual Studio Code...
  • Code deployment via GitHub.
Hands-on work
Deploying a model on a cloud environment with the Flask library.

Very interesting, but I would have liked more detail on the industrialisation part, even if it meant adding a day to the course.
