Webinar & Happy Hour: Advanced Analytics and Visualizations
IPC Global Webinar Series Presents
Qlik AutoML & Data Science
Learn the processes, techniques and tools to start making reliable, statistically valid predictions using Qlik Auto ML
Thursday August 31st at 4:00 PM EST
*Please note that we will not be able to send beverages to any attendees who register after August 20th.
Qlik's AutoML is a powerful tool for analysts to speedily implement machine learning models. Data Science provides the framework for building them right.
Definition: Machine Learning - An advanced analytical technique that uses statistical equations to model relationships between data points, and make predictions based upon those relationships.
Definition: Data Science - A sequential process for extracting, preparing, and analyzing data to provide consistent, accurate, and statistically valid results.
Qlik AutoML is a powerful tool for analysts to speedily implement machine learning models in their Qlik applications. It takes most of the fuss out of data preparation, model selection & tuning, and model deployment. A competent data scientist can use it to take a machine learning model from concept to implementation in just a few days instead of weeks.
For the rest of us however, AutoML (and machine learning in general) are difficult to implement effectively. Even with automated tools, you still need to know things like:
-
Is our question well-formulated for modelling?
-
How do we prepare data for modeling? What kinds of data can we use?
-
Which model is the right one, and why?
-
How accurate is our model's prediction?
These are obviously big topics that we can't explain in a 45-minute webinar (and happy hour). Instead, our goal is to provide an overview of the Data Science process- and show how it applies to modelling in Qlik AutoML- so that you have the foundation you need to go out and find the the answers to these questions yourself.
IPC Global's Chief Data Scientist will take you through the data science process of Data Collection, Data Preparation, Exploratory Analysis, Model Building, and Model Deployment using Qlik AutoML. We will also present a number of different use-cases for AutoML to help get your cognitive juices flowing.
So even if the phrase "hyper-parameter tuning" sounds to you like a recording technique the Eurythmics used to get that iconic synthesizer sound on "Sweet Dreams", you'll leave this webinar with the foundational knowledge you need to go out and start adding machine learning to your analytic repertoire.
Join us on Thursday August 31st at 4:00 PM EST, kick back, and enjoy a beverage for a fun, informal presentation about "Qlik AutoML and Data Science" with the experts at IPC Global and Qlik.
Who knows? You just might learn something :)
What we will cover during the webinar:
-
The Data Science Process - The key to good machine learning models is the right process. We'll introduce fundamental Data Science concepts to give you a solid framework for your own further exploration.
-
Qlik AutoML - Overview of Qlik's automated machine learning tool, AutoML with a focus on Testing and Deploying ML models.
-
Use Cases - Examples of how other organizations are using ML to make a real impact.
