Machine learning uses algorithms to learn patterns and regularities in data. Such statistical models are suitable for predicting events. The participants practically work out the creation of a model for regression analysis using a continuous data example (Spotify data). Regression analysis is one of the statistical analysis techniques. It models relationships between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. The online service Spotify stores audio properties, e.g., energy and volume, for musical works. In the course, participants will use the model created to examine pieces of music and determine properties predictively.
