Course Overview

Feature engineering is a crucial stage in any machine learning project. It allows you to use data to define features that enable machine learning algorithms to work properly. In this course, you will learn the techniques that will help you create new features from existing features. You’ll start by diving into label encoding which is crucial for converting categorical features into numerical. You’ll also learn about other various types of encoding such as: one-hot, count, and mean, all of which are importa...Show More
