Bachelor's students and Master's students as well as young professionals and scientists with an interest in machine learning and data analytics
This course aims at making you familiar with basic machine learning approaches and data analytics techniques, thus enabling you to use them to your professional benefit. Adopting a user perspective, you will learn to automate simple but time-consuming tasks such as classification of analysts’ conference calls into economically meaningful content.
Additionally, the course enables you to tackle complex prediction tasks using different information sources. Finally, the course gives you relevant data analytics skills such as the description, visualisation and statistical analysis of such predictions. We will use the programming language Python to apply the above-mentioned concepts.
All essential programming skills are taught in this course, and there are no prior programming skills required.
Prerequisites for participation are a good command of written and spoken English. Lectures, presentations and examinations will be held in English. Even though we do not require students to submit language test results, we urge students with poor language skills to abstain from applying. Knowledge of German is not a prerequisite.
