Course description

This course will introduce a variety of machine learning (ML) methods to analyse numerical and categorical outcomes, and it will discuss how they can be applied in both prediction and causal inference settings. This is an introductory course, and therefore ideas will be explained at a beginner level, with a particular focus on practical applications of ML in real-world studies. Tutorials will include readily available methods and solutions that participants will be able to apply in their own work.

Learning objectives

To develop an understanding of how Machine Learning is being applied for prediction and causal inference in real-world studies. 

To be able to implement some of the available methods in R
