SUMMARY:The K-Nearest Neighbour Classification Algorithm Explained
DESCRIPTION:Big Data Algorithms: The K-Nearest Neighbour Classification Algorithm Explained\n\nFree Webinar | Thursday\, March 10th\, 2022 | 10:00 AM Singapore\n  \n\n\nWebinar Description \nThe K-Nearest Neighbour classification algorithm (abbreviated to k-NN) is one the most basic and frequently used algorithms for classification purposes. The k-NN classifier is used in databases in which variables (the columns) indicate specific target conditions\, so that a new data point can be classified as one of these target classes. \nk-NN is a non-parametric algorithm\, which means that the classifier does not make any assumptions on the underlying data distribution or database. More simply stated\, the model structure is determined by the underlying data\, which ensures that the k-NN algorithm can be used in a wide variety of situations. \nThe k-NN algorithm looks at the k number of nearest neighbours (whereby k is specified by the user) and classifies the new data point according to the neighbours that are closest to that data point. To calculate which data point is “nearest\,” the k-NN algorithm calculates the distance from the new data point to the other data points and selects the smallest distance to other data points. \n\n\n\nLearn the Algorithm \n\n\nThe Big Data Algorithm webinars consist of two main components. In the first section of this webinar\, you will learn the fundamental theory of the K-Nearest Neighbour classification algorithms. We will take a closer look at the inner workings of the algorithm\, and the mathematical rules which the K-Nearest Neighbour classifier is following to achieve its predictions. \nThe second part of the webinar will be a practical showcase\, that will show how the algorithm works in practice. To showcase how the K-Nearest Neighbour classification algorithm works\, we will make use of standardized Python or R scripts to show you how to build a classifier by yourself. All data\, scripts and examples will be provided to the participants who sign up for this webinar. \n\n\n\nYour Instructor \n\n\nThis webinar will be hosted by Mr. Jan-Willem Middelburg\, the author of the Enterprise Big Data Framework publications. Jan-Willem has over a decade of experience in Big Data\, Machine Learning and AI algorithms design and applications. \nA pioneer and advocate for professionalization in Automation and Big Data\, he is a frequent keynote speaker and moderator at universities and technology conferences around the world. Jan-Willem holds a Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering\, a Master’s in Supply Chain Management from the Rotterdam School of Management\, and is currently pursuing a second Master’s degree in Computer and Information Technology at the University of Pennsylvania. \n\n\n\nRegistration \n

SUMMARY:Free Webinar - An Introduction to Clustering Algorithms
DESCRIPTION:Webinar Description\nClustering algorithms are widely used in the analysis of Enterprise Big Data sets. They are applied for customer segmentation\, targeted marketing and inventory mapping. In order to cluster data\, algorithms will determine similarities (or dissimilarities) between individual observations. In this webinar\, we will provide an introductory overview of common clustering algorithms and the way they are used in practice. \nClustering is the process of putting similar data into groups. A clustering algorithm partitions the observations in a data set into several groups in such a way that the similarity (in terms of variables) within a group is larger than between the different groups. Finding these partitions of data sets can have significant value for Enterprise organizations by enhancing their decision-making process. \nThere are a variety of different clustering techniques and corresponding algorithms. In this introductory webinar about clustering algorithms\, we will consider some of the most popular examples. Most notably\, we will consider the K-Means algorithm and Hierarchical clustering. We will discuss the (mathematical) process and underlying theory of these clustering algorithms\, and subsequently illustrate them in the R or Python languages. \nThis webinar will provide you with an introductory overview if clustering algorithms\, explained by Jan-Willem Middelburg\, the lead author of the Enterprise Big Data Framework. Even if you don’t have any background in data analysis or data science\, you will be able to participate in this webinar. All the examples have been prepared online\, so you can practice with the materials during and after the webinar. Additionally\, all registered participants will receive access to the webinar presentation and relevant data analysis files. \nDon’t miss this chance to learn more about clustering algorithms\, and register through the form below. \nRegistration\n[wpforms id=”13726″]

SUMMARY:Deep Dive in Classification Algorithms – Big Data Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Classification techniques are widely used in enterprise organizations. From the limit of your credit card\, to your mortgage amount\, as well as the things you see online on your timeline on social media. You might not fully realize it (yet)\, but all these aspects are determined by classification algorithms. Classification algorithm determine\, for a large extent\, the content we see\, the information that is presented to us\, and the decisions we make. But have you ever wondered how these classification algorithms work? \nIn this webinar\, we will present you with a fundamental understanding of classification algorithms. We will discuss how they work\, which parameters you need\, and what the differences are between different classification algorithms. In the second part of the webinar\, we will discuss one of the most widely used (in terms of application) classification algorithms: the K-Nearest Neighbour Classification (k-NN) algorithm. We will showcase how it works\, how it helps solve problem\, and provide a demonstration in R. After this webinar\, you will have the fundamental knowledge to start building classification algorithms by yourself.
