Introduction to Machine Learning

In this Nanodegree, you'll start learning what machine learning is by being introduced to the high level concepts through AWS SageMaker. You'll begin by using SageMaker Studio to perform exploratory data analysis. Know how and when to apply the basic concepts of machine learning to real-world scenarios. Create machine learning workflows, starting with data cleaning and feature engineering to evaluation and hyperparameter tuning. Finally, you'll build new ML workflows with highly sophisticated models such as XGBoost and AutoGluon.

Lesson 1

Introduction to Machine Learning

Overview of key background around Machine Learning and preparing you to be successful in the rest of this course.

Lesson 2

Exploratory Data Analysis

Use AWS SageMaker Studio to access S3 datasets and perform data analysis, feature engineering with Data Wrangler and Pandas. And finally label new data using SageMaker Ground Truth.

Lesson 3

Machine Learning Concepts

In this lesson you'll learn about ML Lifecycles, how to differentiate between supervised vs. unsupervised ML, regression methods, and classification methods.

Lesson 4

Model Deployment Workflow

In this lesson you'll load a dataset, clean/create features, train a regression/classification model with scikit learn, evaluate a model and tune a model's hyperparameter.

Lesson 5

Algorithms and Tools

In this lesson you'll train, test, and optimize on liner, tree-based, XGBoost, and AutoGluon Tabular models. And you will also create a model using SageMaker Jumpstart

Lesson 6 • Project

Predict Bike Sharing Demand with AutoGluon

Train a model using AutoGluon to predict bike sharing demand, and see how highly you can place in the competition!

Course 2 4 weeks

Operationalizing Machine Learning on SageMaker

This course covers advanced topics related to deploying professional machine learning projects on SageMaker. Students will learn how to maximize output while decreasing costs. They will also learn how to deploy projects that can handle high traffic, how to work with especially large datasets, and how to approach security in machine learning AWS applications.

Lesson 1

Introduction to Operationalizing Machine Learning on SageMaker

In this introductory lesson, we will give you a course overview of topics and design. We will also introduce what exactly operationalizing machine learning means as well as how it applies.

Lesson 2

Manage compute resources in AWS accounts to ensure efficient utilization

This lesson is about managing computing resources effectively. We’ll talk about lowering costs and getting more with less.

Lesson 3

Train models on large-scale datasets using distributed training

This lesson is about training models on large datasets. We’ll talk about distributed models, distributed data, and some skills related to distributed training.

Lesson 4

Construct pipelines for high throughput, low latency models

This lesson is about high throughput, low latency models. Essentially, this means that we’ll be talking about preparing your projects to deal with high traffic and minimal time delays.

Lesson 5

Design Secure Machine Learning Projects in AWS

Our final lesson is about security. Security is crucial for all major machine learning projects, so these skills can be very helpful in your career.

Lesson 6 • Project

Operationalizing an AWS ML Project

Your goal in this project will be to use several important tools and features of AWS to adjust, improve, configure, and prepare the model you started with for production-grade deployment.
