Course Description

This course will teach you how to preprocess data. Preprocessing data is essential for any machine-learning project. Preprocessing is essential for importing, cleaning, and fitting your machine learning model. Preprocessing refers to standardizing your data in order to make your model fit. Learn how to create new features from the data in your dataset. A preprocessing exercise will be given to help you create a UFO sightings dataset that you can use for modeling.
