Open session
1
Statistics & experimental design (6 days)
- Use statistical methods to assist decision-making using critical methodologies like A/B testing.
- Apply inferential statistics, parameter estimation, and hypothesis testing on Data Science problems.
- Learn about probabilistic modeling and generalized linear models and solve real-world problems.
2
Data Science toolkit (6 days)
- Learn the tools and programming languages relevant to Data Science.
- Python fundamentals for Data Science, version control (git and GitLab), organizing and structuring data science projects.
- In-depth data wrangling in Python (accessing online data through APIs, data cleaning, and exploration with Pandas).
- Work with both JupyterLab and integrated development environments.
3
Data visualization (4 days)
- Use advanced visualization techniques for extracting actionable insights from data and create visually compelling stories.
- Create interactive figures and even full-fledged dashboards leveraging tools like Matplotlib, Seaborn, Plotly, and Dash.
4
Machine Learning I (4 days)
- Gain an in-depth view of supervised learning methods (regression and classification).
- Learn ML core concepts (ex: gradient descent, linear vs non-linear models, loss functions, cross-validation, tuning).
- Solve real-world scenarios, including tackling imbalanced data and selecting suitable models.
- Build advanced end-to-end machine learning pipelines.
5
Machine Learning II (5 days)
- Optimize model performance using hyperparameter tuning.
- Use model interpretation frameworks such as LIME and SHAP.
- Apply unsupervised learning methods (clustering, outlier detection, and dimensionality reduction).
- Learn about the most recent advancements, applications, and frameworks for Auto-ML (PyCaret, TPOT, and Auto-Sklearn).
6
Deep Learning (5 days)
- Learn the theory and history behind neural networks and deep learning.
- Build your own networks using TensorFlow and Keras - Artificial Neural Networks and Convolutional Neural Networks.
- Use deep transfer learning and state-of-the-art Deep Learning models to solve computer vision problems like image classification and segmentation.
- Interpret and explain deep learning models for vision using techniques like Grad-CAM.
7
Natural Language Processing (NLP) (4 days)
- Learn NLP core concepts (e.g.: named entity recognition, topic modeling, document classification, similarity, embeddings, etc.).
- Learn and practice how to transform unstructured text into structured data and train classical ML models.
- Solve diverse problems like classification, recommendations, summarization, named entity recognition, and more.
- Use the latest state-of-the-art Deep Learning models, including transformers to solve more complex tasks (language translation, contextual similarity, search, and more).
8
Machine Learning Engineering (6 days)
- SQL is one of the most requested job interview skills. In 3 days, we bring you from a complete beginner to an advanced level so that you are well prepared for your future job interviews.
- Learn how to approach a Data Science project effectively by using conventional workflows and creating a clean project structure.
- Learn about MLOps best practices such as model & data version control, experiment tracking, model and code testing, and CI/CD for ML projects.
- Use Docker containerize and serve your model, making it accessible via an API that you will deploy on a cloud server.
9
Capstone project (weeks 9-12)
- Solve real Data Science problems provided by companies and research institutions.
- Experience the complete Data Science process: from defining your business problem, exploring the data, applying suitable machine learning techniques, to finally delivering a functional prototype.
- Get coached and present your work in a public meetup.
