Support Vector Machines with Support Vector Regression from Scikit-learn
My name is Aurelie and I'm graduating with an MSc in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Limerick.
I run monthly **machine learning** and **deep learning** tutorials in Dublin with a small group of people.
\*\*In this tutorial, we will build a **Support Vector Machines** model using the **Support Vector Regression** built-in algorithm from **Scikit-learn**. Together, we will walk through the full pipeline from data preprocessing to model training and evaluation. This will include looking at correlations , removal of outliers and GridSearchCV.
* The tutorials are interactive and will be conducted using **Jupyter notebooks** on **Google Colaboratory** (a free, cloud-based platform that lets us write and run code directly in the browser). While **Google Colaboratory** is free to use, tasks that require more computational power (such as training deep learning models) may benefit from GPU access. In that case, Google offers a once-off payment for around €10 which can last several months depending on your usage.
Some familiarity with **Python** or other programming languages is helpful but not required. Everyone is welcome to join and learn at their own pace.
* The tutorial lasts for 1.5 hours from **3** to **4.30 pm**.
* During the tutorial, I share the Jupyter notebook with participants so they can keep it for future reference. We go through the notebook step by step together and I do my best to answer any questions along the way.
* The notebook includes the complete code from data preparation to model training and evaluation. It can be reused or adapted for your own business needs or personal projects
* We will be working with a variety of **Python** libraries including **Scikit-learn**, **PyTorch**, **TensorFlow**, **Keras**, **Seaborn**, **Pandas** and **Matplotlib** and the **Hugging Face** framework. These tools will help us explore different machine learning and deep learning techniques using publicly available datasets.
* Each tutorial focuses on a different algorithm in depth. Topics covered include **linear regression**, **logistic regression**, **K-means clustering**, **decision trees**, **artificial neural networks (ANNs)**, **convolutional neural networks (CNNs)** for image classification, **object detection** and **natural language processing**. The goal is to break down each technique step by step, making it approachable and practical for real-world applications.
The tutorials take place at the **Camdem court hotel in Dublin 2** at **the bar or the restaurant** if the bar is full (coffees need to be ordered at the restaurant). It will run from **3pm** to **4.30 pm**. **If the bar is busy ,we' ll meet at the restaurant.**
**Camdem court hotel**
**Camden Street Lower, Saint Kevin's, Dublin, D02 W086**
* The tutorials are a high-level practical introduction to machine learning and deep learning and the emphasis on understanding how we process the data , train and evaluate a model with Python. We won't cover the mathematics behind it however some tutorials may have mathematical formulas as part of the algorithm explanation and some tutorials might have more complex data preprocessing as it depends on the datasets and the task we are doing. However the tutorials focus on the practical part!
* *Payments need to be made in advance to secure your place and fees are non-refundable unless I need to cancel the event, in this case refunds will be made.*
