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 3: Advanced Data Science with Microsoft Services – 2 days course
This training is designed for data science, data analysis and who want to do machine learning by writing R or Python code. This course will start with some explanation of different machine learning algorithms and approaches. Then, some discussion on basic statistical analysis will be provided such as probability, factor analysis, hypothesis testing and so forth. Then the process of machine learning from business understanding, data cleaning, feature selection, model selection, split data for testing and training, evaluating the created model and finally developing and visual the trained model and analyzing the result will be presented.
For predict analysis algorithms such as decision tree, boosted decision tree, decision forest will be explained. The concept and how they work will be explained. Then how to set parameters for each of them will be illustrated. Also, the process of data preparation for each of these algorithms will be discussed. Finally, the related code for writing this algorithm in the cloud will be explained. The same process will be done for the descriptive algorithms such as clustering.
In this two days training, the audience will learn some deep concepts for machine learning, data analysis, main algorithms for predictive, descriptive and statistical analysis using R, R in Power BI and SQL Server.
The training includes but not limited to topics below:
3.1: Machine Learning Basics
The main concepts, life cycle and best practice of doing machine learning with Microsoft product will be explained.
- The main Predictive, descriptive and Prescriptive analysis will be explained
- What are the main stages of machine learning cycle will be illustrated
- Business understanding
- Data cleaning and feature selection
- Model Selection
- Data training and testing
- Evaluating measures
- Writing codes
3.2: Predictive Analytics
In this section, the audience will learn some of the algorithms such as Decision tree, Decision Forest, regression and SVM for the aim of predictive analytics. The main concepts of these algorithms will be explained, and the related R or Python code will be shown. How to analysis the trained model and set up the parameters also will be discussed. Finally, how to evaluate the result will be explained.
- What is classification and how to evaluate a classification result using confusion Matrix
- Decision Tree, Decision Forest, and Boosted decision tree
- SVM and KNN
- How to do classification using decision tree in SQL Server 2016
- How to classify by decision forest in Power BI
- The main code for SVM and KNN and how to compare the results by writing R codes
3.3: Descriptive Analytics
Descriptive analytics is an unsupervised learning approach. In this part, the audience will be familiar with some of the main algorithms for descriptive analytics from text mining, clustering and, Market basket analytics.
- The main concepts for clustering and k-mean clustering will be explained. Also, the process of identifying the number of clusters will be explained
- The main process for text mining for the aim of sentiment analytics, keyword extraction, and language detection
- How to do clustering in Power BI and how to use Power BI visual to analysis cluster
- What is market basket analysis and what is support, confidence and lift measure
- How to do Market basket analysis with R and rules package and how to show the result in Power BI visualization tools
- Text mining concepts and main concepts
3.4: Forecasting
Forecasting is one of the main approaches for time series. The main concepts of the time series will be explained and how to decompose time series, how to use exponential smoothing and ARIMA for forecasting the time series data. Audience will learn

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.
