Take the free "Introduction to Python for Machine Learning" online until 4/27 application

Hyde: clap:

Today, I would like to take "** Introductory Python Course for Machine Learning **" online.

This is an online course for machine learning super beginners developed by ** Skill Up AI Co., Ltd. ** in cooperation with the Japan Deep Learning Association.

If it is true, the cost is about 50,000 yen, but for those who are reluctant in the corona, if you apply ** by ** 2020/4/30 ~~ ** 2020/4/27 **, 2020 / You can read the teaching materials until 4/30!

I've been an engineer for 15 years, but machine learning is refreshing, so I'm going to take it with a brand new feeling: yum:

By the way, I'm going to write this article for transcendental beginners as well.

• Here, we will explain on the assumption that you are using a Windows PC.

Apply

Yes, let's go immediately. This is the application homepage. https://www.skillupai.com/python_jdla/

In this course, we aim to be able to build machine learning models using scikit-learn from an inexperienced level of Python programming.

?? ?? ?? "Are you aware of new things? Somehow, Ola, it's exciting!"

... But if you're really a transcendental beginner, you'll be like, "Well ... I'm scared of all the words I don't know ..."

Well, for the time being, here

This course can be taken even by those who have no experience as an engineer.

Let's believe in the touch and proceed. (You can take the course, but I'm not saying that you can clear it (!?))

First, press [Click here to apply], which is always tracked at the bottom of the page. (... It's okay! You can take the course immediately without the need for Matagi, so let's proceed as it is!)

Enter application information

Then, the screen for entering the address, name, phone number, e-mail address, work place, etc. will be displayed. Work information is not essential, so please be assured if you are a ant.

-[x] I agree to the terms I think it is essential, so check it.

Press [Send] when you are done.

Receive course information email

If you succeed, you will receive an email from the "Skill Up AI Management Office". There

1. URL of the lecture material download page
2. URL of the lecture video page

Is listed.

Shall we do 1. for the time being?

If you open the URL with a web browser, you will reach the "Lecture Material Download Page" as shown below.

You don't need any ID or permissions, so feel free to download them all.

Before starting to play the lecture video

Okay, let's take it! !! Please wait a moment before ...

This course uses a programming language called Python.

The program code can be written in Notepad, to put it in the extreme, but we also need software that interprets it as" this is Python program code "and executes it.

So let's set it up.

Set up Anaconda3

"Anaconda 3" is a set of software required to execute Python and other useful functions.

The software is made overseas, so it's in English, but let's not be afraid!

https://www.anaconda.com/ Please access this homepage and press the [Download] button that is displayed as big in the upper right corner of the screen.

When you reach the download page, scroll down. There is a download link.

There are versions 3.x and 2.x, but don't hesitate to use the newer 3.x. Also, select and click either 64bit version / 32bit version according to your computer. I think the download will start.

Once the download is complete, click to run it. The Anaconda3 installer will start.

Don't hesitate here [Next>].

There are various small and difficult rules written, but [I Agree].

Either is OK, but if the computer is only used by you, you can use [Just Me] and [Next>].

I was asked "where to install", but it may be better to change it to C: \ anaconda3. The reason is that there are some people who sometimes have bugs when installing overseas software under a folder containing Japanese.

Do not touch anything about this and press [Install].

Then the installation will start.

When you are done, you will be able to press the [Next>] button, so let's press it.

It's a promotion. I recommend PyCharm, a programming support software for Python, sold by a company called JetBrains. For the time being [Next>].

It's finally the end. You will be asked if you would like to take a tutorial that introduces how to use Anaconda3, but if you like. Here, "No, it's fine", so uncheck the check box and press [Finish].

Hmmm, this completes the installation. Thank you for your hard work.

Start the software Jupyter Notebook that comes with Anaconda3

"A word I don't know suddenly came out !?" No, that's true ...

** Jupyter Notebook ** is one of the software that comes with Anaconda3. You can write Python code in a web browser and execute it immediately. After all, this (** Jupyter Notebook **) was the purpose of installing Anaconda3 this time.

Let's start it.

Click ʻAnaconda3 → Jupyter Notebook (anaconda3) `from the Windows Start menu.

Then, such suspicious software will start ...! I'm surprised ...

But this is the main body of ** Jupyter Notebook ** ... So please don't close it with ✖ ...

so, Like ↑ displayed there http://localhost:8888/?token=xxxxxxxxxxxxx... Copy the URL to the clipboard (drag the character string with the left mouse button and right-click to copy it), and open it with a web browser.

↑ Did a page like this open?

• The list contents in the center of the screen may differ from the photos (because it depends on the computer)

Then, click [NEW ▼] at the top right of the page, and click Python 3 from the menu that appears.

Did you arrive at this page this time?

Actually, this is the target software. Hmmm, do it.

If you write the Python code in the text box to the right of this ʻIn []:`, it will be interpreted and executed on the spot!

For example, display ** Hello World! If you write the Python code **, ...

It was displayed! Elai! (By the way, ** Execute ** is Ctrl + Enter)

Then ** Substitute (1 + 3) for x, substitute (x + 10) for y, and display the value of y! ** ** If you write ...

Elai! !!

Now you are ready to attend!

Open the lecture video page

The story goes back a lot, Open the ** URL of the lecture video page ** in the email with your web browser.

You mean, "After that, practice yourself while watching the video."

There are about 8 videos + α for about 1 hour.

Of course, there is no need to submit a report, so let's do it at your own pace! I'll try it now: smiley:
