R is a powerful programming language used widely for data analysis and statistical computing. It was developed in early 90s. Since then, endless efforts have been made to improve R’s user interface. The journey of R language from a rudimentary text editor to interactive R Studio and more recently Jupyter Notebooks has engaged many data science communities across the world. This was possible only because of generous contributions by R users globally. Inclusion of powerful packages in R has made it more and more powerful with time. Packages such as dplyr, tidyr, readr, data.table, SparkR, ggplot2 have made data manipulation, visualization and computation much faster. But, what about Machine Learning ? For a lot of people, the first impression of R was that it is just a software for statistical computing. Good thing, that is wrong! R has enough provisions to implement machine learning algorithms in a fast and simple manner. This is a complete tutorial to learn data science and machine learning using R. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a good exposure to building predictive models using machine learning on your own. No prior knowledge of data science / analytics is required. However, prior knowledge of algebra and statistics will be helpful.
Senior Data Scientist @ Maxis
An important part of being a data scientist is being capable of turning dry analysis into an exciting story that influences the direction of the business and communicating with diverse teams to take a project from start to finish.
A Data Scientist with newly acquired skills, an insatiable intellectual curiosity, and the ability to mine hidden gems located within large sets of structured, semi-structured and unstructured data. Able to leverage a heavy dose of mathematics and applied statistics with visualization and a healthy sense of exploration using the Data Science techniques for Business Analysis.
Mannem is extremely good in strategic thinking; being able to influence the strategic direction of the company by identifying opportunities in large, rich data sets and creating and implementing data driven strategies that fuel growth including revenue and profits and modeling; designing and implementing statistical / predictive models and cutting edge algorithms utilizing diverse sources of data to predict demand, risk and price elasticity. Experience with creating ETL processes to source and link data.
Beside that, he is very experienced in analytics; utilizing analytical applications like R, Python, Scala, Spark MLlib and SAS to identify trends and relationships between different pieces of data, draw appropriate conclusions and translate analytical findings into risk management and marketing strategies that drive value.
Other competencies are:
Drive Enhancements: Develop tools and reports that help users access and analyze data resulting in higher revenues and margins and a better customer experience.
Communications and Project Management: Capable of turning dry analysis into an exciting story that influences the direction of the business and communicating with diverse teams to take a project from start to finish.
Skills and Tools:
• SAS (Base&Advc, Data Miner and Enterprise), R, Python, Spark, Scala, C, COBOL, KNIME, Excel.
• NoSQL data stores (Cassandra, MongoDB, HBASE)
• Hadoop, Hive, Pig, MYSQL, MapReduce
• Scaling, performance and scheduling and ETL techniques
• ETL tools like Informatica, Data Stage, and Talend.
• Data Warehousing, Data Migration and Data Management
• Machine Learning, Data Mining, Statistical Learning, Power BI, Gephi, and Agent Based Modelling.
Since this is a beginner course, we will start off with a introduction to machine learning. You will learn what machine learning is and where you can apply it. You will discover all the different types of machine learning and study a few user cases in real time.
After we have laid out the groundwork, you will discover why you should learn R these days, a brief history of the programming language and an introduction to how it works and it's terminology. You will learn how to install R and how to work with R-studio. Finally you will go into R packages and perform some basic computations.
In the third module you will learn all about data types and objects in R. You will explore control structures (functions) in R and how to use different useful packages.
One of the most exciting parts of R is exploratory data analysis. You will learn how to create beautiful graphics. You will understand how to treat missing values, and learn to work with continuous and categorical variables.
With data manipulation in R you will learn how to do feature engineering, label encoding and one-hot encoding.
Something that cannot be missed in a machine learning course; predictive modelling. You will learn all there is to know about predictive modelling using machine learning in R. Subjects go from linear regression, decision tree to random forest.
This course is intended for learners who have basic programming background, and want to apply statistics, machine learning, information visualization, social network analysis, and text analysis techniques to gain new insight into data. Only minimal statistics background is expected, and the course contains a refresh of these basic concepts. Learners with a formal training in Computer Science but without formal training in data science will still find the skills they acquire in these courses valuable in their studies and careers. Students should bring a laptop.
All the instructors are very helpful and eager to share their knowledge. I learned directly how to apply new knowledge, boosted my network by working on case studies with other attendees and got amazing career guidance by UBARU after the course. Every course feels like it is made for me.

Every course with UBARU is another great experience. Every time I attend, the instructor gives a unique twist to the whole experience. These instructors are the best in their field, and you can definitely see that during the course. When I attend a course in which I have zero experience, the instructors are patient and there to help.
Overall great experience, good vibe and walked away with some good connections due to the networking sessions. Thanks!
