Course Description

Building standard regression and classification models involve a number of steps which are often repetitive and can be standardized. Explore how estimators abstract away a lot of these tasks and speed up the task of model creation.

Learning Objectives

Linear Regression Models: Simplifying Regression and Classification with Estimators

  • Course Overview
  • describe the role of estimators in speeding up the development of standard regression and classification models
  • prepare a dataset to be used to train and validate a linear regression estimator
  • use the estimator's methods to train and evaluate the model and visualize its performance using Matplotlib
  • transform a dataset so that it can be used to train and validate a linear classifier estimator
  • use input functions to pass training and validation data to an estimator and evaluate its performance on
  • utilize TensorFlow estimators with linear regression models
