SUMMARY:Certificate in Machine Learning - Virtual Open Class - Introduction to Text Classification (On-Demand)
DESCRIPTION:This 30-minute\, pre-recorded Open Class\, Machine Learning Instructor Dr. Annie Lee introduces learners to applications of supervised classification using text. This virtual Open Class is a demo lesson for the Certificate in Machine Learning at York University School of Continuing Studies. \nDr. Annie Lee\, Machine Learning Instructor\n“In the last decade\, the accessibility of the vast computational power has allowed machine learning techniques to analyze large amounts of data such as text. Text is an essential mode of human communication that can be found everywhere\, from social networks and forums to financial and medical documents. This Open Class will introduce learners to applications of supervised classification using text (called text classification). We will introduce practical applications from the real-world and walk-through a piece of python code central to the machine learning pipeline.” \n\n                \n                        \n                            Event Registration\n                             \n                        \n                        Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Email*\n                            \n                        Phone* Please describe your prospective student status*Domestic - (Canadian Citizen / Permanent Resident)Domestic International - I'm an international student already in CanadaInternational - I'm an international student outside of Canada*\n								\n								I consent to my submitted data being collected and stored as outlined by the privacy policy\n							CAPTCHA\n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        Δ

SUMMARY:Data Analytics – LIVE Virtual Open Class: Making Sound Business Decisions with Clustering Methods - THU\, SEP 9
DESCRIPTION:Join Program Manager Sean Woodhead and Big Data Instructor Dr. Hemant Sangwan for a Virtual Open Class for the Big Data Analytics Program. This 30-minute free open class explores how business decisions can be supported with cluster analysis. Clustering enables businesses to classify and segment customers\, firms\, regions\, brands\, and products. The classification makes information processing and resource allocation easier in business decisions. Real-world examples will be used to explain clustering in a business context. The session will conclude with explaining clustering–personalization as two ends of a spectrum. \nRegister Now\nSean Woodhead\, Program Manager\nDr. Hemant Sangwan\, Instructor

DESCRIPTION:Get a behind-the-scenes view of an online demo lesson delivered by one of our Big Data Analytics program instructors. In this 30-minute pre-recorded open class\, Big Data Analytics instructor Hemant Sangwan explores how business decisions can be supported with cluster analysis. Clustering enables businesses to classify and segment customers\, firms\, regions\, brands\, and products. The classification makes information processing and resource allocations easier in business decisions. The tendency to classify things\, however\, is not limited to just business decisions and we will see examples of classifications in other scenarios. Real world examples will be used to explain clustering in a business context\, followed by an easy-to-understand technical description of the method where clustering is/can be used\, followed by methodological approach to clustering. The session will conclude with explaining clustering – personalization as two ends of a spectrum in a grouping/segmentation. \nHemant Sangwan is a full-time Professor at Seneca College\, School of Marketing. He is a Sessional lecture at York University (Schulich School of Business\, School of Continuing Studied\, SEEC) and University of Toronto for Analytics and Data Science courses. Hemant has 12+ years of industry experience in management consulting\, data science & analytics\, marketing research\, economic consulting & forecasting. He is also an independent consultant & Expert advisor to a B2B startup in AI/Blockchain with focus on financial services. His previous employers include Boston Consulting Group (BCG)\, GfK Canada\, and IHS Markit. In addition to his teaching and consulting interests\, Hemant has a passion for discussion on economic and public policy topics. Outside work\, he likes to watch sports\, movies\, reading books on business history\, and learning about long terms investment strategies. \n\n                \n                        \n                            Event Registration\n                             \n                        \n                        Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Email*\n                            \n                        Phone* Please describe your prospective student status*Domestic - (Canadian Citizen / Permanent Resident)Domestic International - I'm an international student already in CanadaInternational - I'm an international student outside of Canada*\n								\n								I consent to my submitted data being collected and stored as outlined by the privacy policy\n							CAPTCHA\n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        Δ
