Week 9 Overview
Welcome to week 9!
It’s time to continuing working with now more complicated models. This week, we are going over:
– Logistic Regression – Regression and Classification Trees – Ensemble Trees
If you would like, here are some optional reading material to additionally help support you through learning these concepts.
Regression and Classification Trees article
Keep in mind the learning objectives as we continue working with models:
– Can you describe the modeling process (at a high level). That is, how would you answer the question “What is logistic regression?”
– Can you identify when these models are appropriate to use? That is, when would you suggest using logistic regression to a client?
– Can you articulate when one type of model is performing better than others?
– Can you articulate the model selection process to another statistician? What about a client?
Let’s have a wonderful week 9! As always, please reach out if you have any questions.
