Webinar: Improve Your Regression with CART and RandomForests 

LIVE OR ON-DEMAND
  • LIVE: Thursday, January 26th, 10AM – 11AM PST, 1PM EST
  • ON-DEMAND: If the time is inconvenient, please register and we will send you a recording
  • Duration: 45 minutes
  • Cost: Complimentary
  • Real-world dataset, step-by-step instructions, hands-on option


ABSTRACT:
In this webinar we'll introduce you to two tree-based machine learning algorithms, CART decision trees and RandomForests. We will discuss the advantages of tree-based techniques including their ability to automatically handle variable selection, variable interactions, nonlinear relationships, outliers, and missing values. We'll explore the CART algorithm, bootstrap sampling, and the Random Forest algorithm (all with animations) and compare their predictive performance using a real world dataset. 

Who should attend: 
  • Attend if you want to implement data science techniques even without a data science, programming, or even an advanced statistical background.
  • Attend if you want to understand why data science techniques are so important for analysts.
