About this Course

An understanding of basic statistics for machine learning concepts provides a strong foundation for further learning in the fields of data analysis, data science, and even some areas of machine learning. Without statistics, it becomes nearly impossible to work on becoming an expert in this domain when working with real-time or industry-grade products. Hence, to understand the domain and actively implement it, statistics is very much the need of the hour for Machine Learning.

 

This free online statistics in machine learning course covers the basics of descriptive statistics and data visualizations. You will be learning about the importance of this functional concept called statistics in this vast domain. Statistics is a key requirement which acts as a foundation to build up for further concepts down the line, hence it makes it very vital that you understand this. It also explains the various kinds of statistical distributions and how to apply them to business problems in a simple manner.
