Welcome to the General Data Science – Machine Learning (ML) Layer

Welcome to Complex Data Insights (CDI) — where learning machine learning starts with the right questions and grows through hands-on exploration.

This guide — the General Data Science: Free Q&A Edition — now takes you into the world of Machine Learning, using Python and R to help you move from data analysis to predictive modeling.

Whether you’re new to ML or reinforcing your foundation, this layer guides you step by step through essential workflows — always starting with real questions and ending with actionable insights.


📘 What You’ll Learn

In this Machine Learning (ML) layer, you’ll explore how to:

  • 🤖 Understand supervised vs. unsupervised learning
  • 📊 Train, test, and evaluate predictive models
  • 🔍 Work with classification, regression, and clustering techniques
  • ⚙️ Use Python and R libraries like scikit-learn, caret, and tidymodels

Each Q&A includes:

  • Step-by-step code in both Python and R
  • Real-world datasets to test and apply models
  • Clear guidance on both the how and why of machine learning decisions
