In this third course, you will:

  • Perform streamlined ETL tasks using TensorFlow Data Services
  • Load different datasets and custom feature vectors using TensorFlow Hub and TensorFlow Data Services APIs
  • Create and use pre-built pipelines for generating highly reproducible I/O pipelines for any dataset
  • Optimize data pipelines that become a bottleneck in the training process
  • Publish your own datasets to the TensorFlow Hub library and share standardized data with researchers and developers around the world

This Specialization builds upon our TensorFlow in Practice Specialization. If you are new to TensorFlow, we recommend that you take the TensorFlow in Practice Specialization first. To develop a deeper, foundational understanding of how neural networks work, we recommend that you take the Deep Learning Specialization.

What You Will Learn

  • Perform efficient ETL tasks using Tensorflow Data Services APIs
  • Construct train/validation/test splits of any dataset - either custom or present in TensorFlow Hub Dataset library - using Splits API
  • Use different modules and functions of the TFDS API to prepare your data for training pipelines
  • Identify bottlenecks in your input pipelines and increase your workflow efficiency by input parallelization

We recommend taking Course 1 of the TensorFlow in Practice Specialization first, or have a basic familiarity with building models in TensorFlow

Course 3 of 4 in the TensorFlow: Data and Deployment Specialization.

ETL and Data Pipelines with Shell, Airflow and Kafka (Coursera)

After taking this course, you will be able to describe two different approaches to converting raw data into analytics-ready data. One approach is the Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) process. The other contrasting approach is the Extract, Load, and Transform (ELT) process. ETL processes apply to data warehouses and data marts. ELT processes apply to data lakes, where the data is transformed on demand by the requesting/calling application.

Follow a Machine Learning Workflow (Coursera)

Machine learning is not just a single task or even a small group of tasks; it is an entire process, one that practitioners must follow from beginning to end. It is this process—also called a workflow—that enables the organization to get the most useful results out of their machine learning technologies. No matter what form the final product or service takes, leveraging the workflow is key to the success of the business's AI solution. This second course within the Certified Artificial Intelligence Practitioner (CAIP) professional certificate explores each step along the machine learning workflow, from problem formulation all the way to model presentation and deployment.

Machine Learning (Coursera)

Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, practical speech recognition, effective web search, and a vastly improved understanding of the human genome. Machine learning is so pervasive today that you probably use it dozens of times a day without knowing it. Many researchers also think it is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. In this class, you will learn about the most effective machine learning techniques, and gain practice implementing them and getting them to work for yourself. More importantly, you'll learn about not only the theoretical underpinnings of learning, but also gain the practical know-how needed to quickly and powerfully apply these techniques to new problems.

Experimental Methods in Systems Biology (Coursera)

Learn about the technologies underlying experimentation used in systems biology, with particular focus on RNA sequencing, mass spec-based proteomics, flow/mass cytometry and live-cell imaging. A key driver of the systems biology field is the technology allowing us to delve deeper and wider into how cells respond to experimental perturbations. This in turns allows us to build more detailed quantitative models of cellular function, which can give important insight into applications ranging from biotechnology to human disease. This course gives a broad overview of a variety of current experimental techniques used in modern systems biology, with focus on obtaining the quantitative data needed for computational modeling purposes in downstream analyses.
