Hello Everyone, We’re excited to announce that our WiDSKenya Data Drills  are back on! After postponing in June due to the protests, we’ve rescheduled the next event for Wednesday, August 28th. Topic: Classification Modeling Time: August 28, 2024, at 8pm UTC+3. Join us for an engaging session where Samuel Kigo,a Senior Data Scientist , will guide us through the essentials of classification modeling—a key technique in data science used for tasks like predicting outcomes and making decisions. This session will cover: •            Introduction to Classification Models: Understanding the fundamentals and when to use them. •            Practical Examples: Real-world applications in fields like healthcare, finance, and marketing. •            Hands-On Demonstration: A step-by-step walkthrough of building and evaluating a classification model. •            Tips and Best Practices: How to choose the right model and improve its accuracy. Whether you’re new to the field or have some experience, this session will offer valuable insights, practical examples, and tips on how to apply classification models effectively in your work. We know it’s been a while, but we’re thrilled to reconnect and continue our journey together. Register https://lnkd.in/dq9iBSuN and help spread the word!
