Python Machine Learning Bootcamp: Advanced Python Training in NYC

This skillset is in high demand, as machine learning algorithms now run the majority of trading on Wall Street and the product recommendations at big companies like Amazon, Spotify, and Netflix.

This course will begin with linear and logistic regression, the most time-tested and reliable tools for approaching a machine learning problem. The course will then progress to algorithms with a very different theoretical basis, such as k-nearest neighbors, decision trees, and random forest. This will bring important statistical concepts to the forefront, such as bias, variance, and overfitting. You’ll also learn how to measure the accuracy of your models, as well as tips for choosing effective features and algorithms.

The course will be focused on the practical skills needed to solve real-world problems with machine learning. The mathematical foundations for each machine learning algorithm will be explained visually, but there will not be a formal math component. Entering students are expected to be comfortable with writing Python programs, as well as the Numpy and Pandas libraries.

This course does require students to be comfortable with Python and its data science libraries (NumPy and Pandas). If a student has not worked in Python before, we require a student to enroll in our Python for Data Science Bootcamp before taking this course.

Testimonials for Live Online Training

“Overall experience on Zoom was maybe even better than in IRL classroom because the instruction takes place right on your own screen, with less distraction. Great overall experience.”
“Given the fact that we had to do this entire class remotely due to Covid-19, I didn’t have very high expectations it would run so smoothly. However, I don’t think it could’ve gone any better. Not only do I feel very comfortable with the program now, but I’m actually excited to use it!”
“This was the first online class I’ve taken with ND and it was a great experience. Looking forward to the other classes I’ve signed up for!”

Really great way to jump into a complicated topic.

Nolan Young

I highly recommend this class to anyone that is looking for an intro to machine learning.

Marcelo Zampietro

Rob is extremely knowledgeable and made learning a complicated subject matter more accessible

Jason Alter, Tapestry Inc.

EXCELLENT! I was surprised by just how 'inspiring' Patrick turned out to be. He made the material interesting and provided a model of how to establish a good mind-frame necessary to mastery. I loved it. Felt like I got personal direction as well as technical skill.
