CS250: Python for Data Science

The scikit-learn module contains a broad set of methods for statistical analyses and basic machine learning. During the remainder of this unit and the next on unsupervised learning, we will introduce scikit-learn in the context of data mining applications. Use this section as an introduction to see how modules such as pandas can be used in conjunction with the sci-kit learn module. Make sure to follow along with the programming examples. There is no substitute for learning by doing. As this course progresses, you will understand more deeply how to apply the methods used in this video.
