This session will provide a hands-on overview of basic concepts in machine learning, and show how they can be easily implemented in R using the new Tidymodels framework. The Tidymodels framework is a collection of packages for modeling and machine learning using tidyverse principles. We will cover how to build fully reproducible machine learning workflows that are easy to interpret and implement, including key steps such as pre-processing, model fitting and tuning, and model performance evaluation and visualisation.
