We’re very excited to announce that we’re offering a new Immersion Event on Practical Data Science using Azure Machine Learning, SQL Data Mining, and R, presented by our great friend Rafal Lukawiecki<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We’ve known Rafal well since 2003, and apart from being an expert in BI and data mining, he’s a superb, highly-engaging speaker, who’s presented keynotes, workshops, and sessions to high acclaim at conferences around the world including TechEds and Microsoft’s\u00a0brand new Ignite conference. In fact, you can watch\u00a0Rafal’s 75-minute, 300-level session from Ignite earlier this week, on the same topic as the new Immersion Event, on Channel 9 here<\/a>\u00a0– it’s really interesting!<\/p>\n

Rafal’s course will be four days long, with the following modules:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Overview of Practical Data Science for Business<\/li>\n
  2. Data<\/li>\n
  3. Process<\/li>\n
  4. Algorithm Overview<\/li>\n
  5. Tools and Getting Started<\/li>\n
  6. Segmentation<\/li>\n
  7. Classification<\/li>\n
  8. Basic Statistics<\/li>\n
  9. Model Validation<\/li>\n
  10. Classifier Precision<\/li>\n
  11. Regressions<\/li>\n
  12. Similarity Matching and Recommenders<\/li>\n
  13. Other Algorithms (Brief Overview)<\/li>\n
  14. Production and Model Maintenance<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You can read through the detailed\u00a0curriculum here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    The first offering of this new class will be in Chicago, at our usual location, from November 16-19, 2015 – all the details are here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Cool stuff – hope to see you there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
