Machine Learning Crash Course
summary
Begins with concrete claims and concrete tools: builds classifiers and regressors using Python and scikit-learn with train_test_split, turns job titles into numbers with word‑count vectors / CountVectorizer, and warns that time series needs chronological splits (not random) and specialized models (mentions Prophetlike libraries). Reports surprises: 2 errors on 20 test points, a baseline of ~19.7% that makes 80% accuracy meaningless. Ships prototypes: a failed sign‑to‑keyboard, a working educational sign game, and a weekly job‑email bot after under‑sampling; lessons focus on metrics and scope.
