Overview

IBM watsonx.ai: Rapid Machine Learning Model Development and Deployment with AutoAI aims to familiarize data science and analytics professionals with the fundamentals of the IBM watsonx.ai AutoAI tool. This course walks users through creating IBM Cloud projects, building, and evaluating AutoAI experiments for various supervised machine learning and time series use cases, and finally, learners leverage Chat in the Prompt Lab for further analysis of the use case.

The course guides participants through AutoAI features, from model development to deployment, using a no-code approach for:

• Classification models
• Text classification models
• Regression models
• Time series models
• Hyperparameter tuning
• Model explainability
• Data imputation
• Model evaluation
• Model testing
• Deployment

Audience

This course is intended for Data Scientists, AI Specialists, watsonx Specialists, Solution Architects, or anyone interested in AutoAI.
