Machine Learning and AI Foundations: Clustering and Association with Keith McCormick

3h 22m • COURSE
Unsupervised learning is a type of machine learning where algorithms parse unlabeled data. The focus is not on sorting data into known categories but uncovering hidden patterns. Unsupervised learning plays a big role in modern marketing segmentation, fraud detection, and market basket analysis. This course shows how to use leading machine-learning techniques—cluster analysis, anomaly detection, and association rules—to get accurate, meaningful results from big data.

Instructor Keith McCormick reviews the most common clustering algorithms: hierarchical, k-means, BIRCH, and self-organizing maps (SOM). He uses the same algorithms for anomaly detection, with additional specialized functions available in IBM SPSS Modeler. He closes the course with a review of association rules and sequence detection, and also provides some resources for learning more.

All exercises are demonstrated in IBM SPSS Modeler and IBM SPSS Statistics, but the emphasis is on concepts, not the mechanics of the software.
Topics include:
  • What is unsupervised learning?
  • Cluster and distance-based measures
  • Hierarchical cluster analysis
  • K-means cluster analysis
  • Visualizing and reporting cluster solutions
  • Cluster methods for categorical variables

Machine Learning & AI Foundations: Linear Regression with Keith McCormick

3h 57m • COURSE
Having a solid understanding of linear regression—a method of modeling the relationship between one dependent variable and one to several other variables—can help you solve a multitude of real-world problems. Applications areas involve predicting virtually any numeric value including housing values, customer spend, and stock prices. This course reveals the concepts behind the most important linear regression techniques and how to use them effectively. Throughout the course, instructor Keith McCormick uses IBM SPSS Statistics as he walks through each concept, so some exposure to that software is assumed. But the emphasis will be on understanding the concepts and not the mechanics of the software. SPSS users will have the added benefit of being exposed to virtually every regression feature in SPSS.

Instructor Keith McCormick covers simple linear regression, explaining how to build effective scatter plots and calculate and interpret regression coefficients. He also dives into the challenges and assumptions of multiple regression and steps through three distinct regression strategies. To wrap up, he discusses some alternatives to regression, including regression trees and time series forecasting.

  • Building effective scatter plots in Chart Builder
  • Challenges and assumptions of multiple regression
  • Checking assumptions visually
  • Creating dummy codes
