Advanced Analytics with Microsoft Technologies
This is the most comprehensive course for Microsoft Advanced Analytics and Data Science on the planet which split into modules. You can enroll in any of these modules separately or take the whole course. Modules designed independently, which means each module can be taken regardless of the order of modules. Here are a list and detailed agenda of each module:
- Module 1: Power BI for Data Scientists (2 days)
- Module 2: Data Science with Microsoft Cloud (2-days)
- Module 3: Advanced Data Science with Microsoft Services (2-days)
- Module 4: AI and Cognitive Services in Applications (1-day)
Module 2: Data Science with Microsoft Cloud – 2 days course
This training is designed for data scientists, data developer or data architecture, who have the data in the cloud or thinking about using Microsoft machine learning tools in cloud scale. In this training, you will get familiar with machine learning cloud possibilities.
In this course, you will learn how to Azure ML Studio as the first tool for machine learning cloud that introduced in 2014. The detail on how to create a model, how to enhance machine learning algorithms, how to import data and so forth will be explained. Then, you will get familiar with Azure Data Science Virtual Machine as a comprehensive tool for machine learning, some of the tools in it like the Tensor flow and Azure ML workbench will be explained. Then, how to do machine learning in Azure Data Lake store will be explained. Finally, Azure Data Bricks and how to use it for the aim of machine learning will be explained too. This training has many hands-on labs, and all the required scenario will be explained step by step.
At the end of this training, the audience will learn how to define a machine learning problem and how to use Azure ML Studio for cloud machine learning, and also how to use Azure data Lake Analytics, Azure Data Bricks and so forth for machine learning.

- Import data: The main component for importing data from local PC, how to import data from another workspace, how to import data from HTML website, how to import data from cloud such as Azure SQL DB.
- Data Cleaning: data cleaning is the main process that we should do before any machine learning process. I will explain the available component in Azure ML. How to clean missing values, remove duplicate data, select column, clip value (remove outliers), group data into bins, and create an indicator for data. You will learn how to normalize the data, how to use SQL Statement for data transformation, how to use enter data manually, how to edit the data type, change the column name with edit metadata component, how to join data from different data resource , how to increase the number of low incidence in a dataset which unbalanced.
- Feature Selection Data Sampling: the process of feature selection will be explained, how to split data, how to partition data using a sampling approach, how to create different folds for the aim of cross-validation.
- Models: a bit talk about the available models in Azure mL for predictive, descriptive, prescriptive and anomaly detection. An example of a prediction of a group, a value, clustering data, and anomaly detection will be shown. For each scenario, an example will be presented; different algorithms will apply to a problem. The main concepts of k-mean, how to use elbow chart to identify the number of the cluster will be discussed, the PCA chart will be explained. The trained model for recommendation “match box recommender” will be explained through a scenario. The main concepts of collaborative filtering and content-based filtering and hybrid approach for recommendation will be discussed.
- Training and Scoring models: how to choose algorithms and how to train model and test model, what is cross-validation, how to do cross-validation to apply a model to different folds of data, how to check the different values for each parameter and see the related accuracy to that.
- Evaluate: how to evaluate a classification problem concepts of Accuracy, Recall, Precision, AUC will be discussed, the evaluation criteria for regression algorithm MAE, RMSE and so on will be shown. How to evaluate and see the result of more than three algorithms on one dataset will be shown. Using different evaluate the model, enter data manually component and add row component.
- Publish to Web: the process of creating a web service from a model will be discussed, how to check it in Excel will be shown, also how to use it in Stream Analytics as a function for data will be shown.
- Sharing workspace, create projects: the process of how to share the workspace with others will be discussed, how to create a project for each experiment, how to create a trained model component for reuse, and a data transformed the dataset, how to export datasets to CSV, and other formats will be shown.

What others say about the training and trainer
Kenny McMillan, Sports Physiologist / Data Analyst, Frankfurt, Germany:
I attended RADACADs “Advanced Analytics” course recently in Frankfurt in May 2017. Being a regular user of Power BI (with a science background ) the course was extremely helpful in showing me how to incorporate R data visualizations into Power BI dashboards and for introducing me to machine learning using the Microsoft ML Studio. Leila is an excellent and extremely knowledgeable instructor and explained complex data analytical concepts and methodologies in an easy-to-understand manner. I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone who wants to expand their data analytical skills and knowledge.Martin Catherall (Microsoft Data Platform MVP):
As part of SQL Saturday Auckland 2016 I attended an “Analytics with Power BI and R.” pre-con with Leila. Leila took the class’s knowledge from rudimentary to competent in a day. We first looked at R, the language and the software. Once these skills were obtained we started to look at Power BI and the integration that it has with R. We worked through a few examples and Leila answered all of the class’s questions and offered to provide supplementary material for some of the more advanced questions. I left the class feeling that my R and Power BI knowledge was at a competent level and ready to dive into some of the more advanced material that Leila provided.
