Syllabus

WEEK 1
Identify DataSet and UseCase
In this module, the basic process model used for this capstone project is introduced. Furthermore, the learner is required to identify a practical use case and data set

WEEK 2
ETL and Feature Creation
This module emphasizes on the importance of ETL, data cleansing and feature creation as a preliminary step in ever data science project

WEEK 3
Model Definition and Training
This module emphasizes on model selection based on use case and data set. It is important to understand how those two factors impact choice of a useful model algorithm.

WEEK 4
Model Evaluation, Tuning, Deployment and Documentation
One a model is trained it is important to assess its performance using an appropriate metric. In addition, once the model is finished, it has to be made consumable by business stakeholders in an appropriate way

Applied Text Mining in Python (Coursera) Coursera
University of Michigan

Applied Text Mining in Python (Coursera)

This course will introduce the learner to text mining and text manipulation basics. The course begins with an understanding of how text is handled by python, the structure of text both to the machine and to humans, and an overview of the nltk framework for manipulating text. The second week focuses on common manipulation needs, including regular expressions (searching for text), cleaning text, and preparing text for use by machine learning processes. The third week will apply basic natural language processing methods to text, and demonstrate how text classification is accomplished. The final week will explore more advanced methods for detecting the topics in documents and grouping them by similarity (topic modelling).
