Course Description
Ridge and lasso regressions are machine learning algorithms with an integrated regularization functionality. Built upon the essentials of linear regression with an additional penalty term, they serve as a calibrating tool for preventing overfitting. In this hands-on course, you will learn how to apply ridge and lasso regression in Python and determine which of the two is the best choice for your particular dataset.

Curriculum
- 2. Setting Up The Environment2 Lessons 4 MinIf you’re new to programming with Python, we recommend going through our Introduction to Jupyter course which details installing Anaconda and Jupyter and features a tour of the Jupyter Environment. Here, we talk about the required packages for applying ridge and lasso regression in Python.Setting Up The Environment Read now1 minImporting the Relevant Packages3 min
- 3. Ridge and Lasso Regression – Practical Case8 Lessons 37 MinIn this section, we will walk you through the implementation of ridge and lasso regression using sk-learn in Python. We apply these methods to a real dataset in order to increase the performance of a regression algorithm by preventing overfitting. Furthermore, we demonstrate how regularization works and uncover the differences between ridge and lasso models.The Hitters Dataset: Preprocessing and Preparation6 minExploratory Data Analysis6 minPerforming Linear Regression8 minCross-validation for Choosing a Tuning Parameter3 minPerforming Ridge Regression with Cross-validation5 minPerforming Lasso Regression with Cross-validation3 minComparing the Results4 minReplacing the Missing Values in the DataFrame2 min
