Welcome to Week 5
Congratulations for staying with us till the very last week.
In week 5 we will introduce you two basic method from supervised statistical learning methods. You will:
- understand the motivation underlying linear regression and classification;
- acquire deeper understanding of linear regression and linear discriminant analysis;
- understand the computational challenges related to computing parameters of linear regression models;
- understand the computational challenges related to computing parameters and evaluation of linear discriminant analysis;
- learn how to compute parameters of linear regression models over big data using map-reduce and RHadoop;
- learn how to compute parameters of linear discriminant analysis over big data using map-reduce and RHadoop;
We prepared ‘‘plug-and-play’’ examples that will help you to experiment the code and get very familiar with map-reduce and RHadoop.
We wish you lots of joy in mastering new topics.
