Look inside
Judging the effectiveness of a machine learning model requires in-depth analysis. This quick liveProject builds on the work you have completed in Machine Learning for Classification. You’ll assess your early models and consider better alternatives. You’ll plot the ROC curves of the model and compare it to multiple dummy models, and tune your hyperparameters to deliver the most accurate results possible.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book and video resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books and videos for 90 days.
