This course introduces you to Bayesian networks, an inductive reasoning approach ideal for situations with limited data but access to expert knowledge. Whether you’re a developer, data scientist, or AI enthusiast, mastering Bayesian networks in Python is essential to your problem-solving toolkit. You’ll start with the fundamentals of Bayesian networks in Python to establish network criteria and interpret data. You’ll then create and optimize network structures and explore how structured information or simulated data can be transformed into actionable Bayesian networks. Next, you’ll master hyperparameter tuning, query analysis, and the best heuristic to construct Bayesian networks. By the end of this course, you’ll have the tools to refine and apply your new skills in real-world modeling contexts. You’ll be proficient in evaluating Bayesian networks using various metrics, including ROC curve analysis, to design and interpret powerful models, making you an invaluable asset in data-driven industries.
