Governare il business con l’AI: modelli predittivi e machine learning
Ottimizzare le decisioni aziendali attraverso l’analisi predittiva
Apply predictive models to guide business strategy
The course aims to provide an understanding of the basic features of machine learning and business forecasting models, including the types of data that can be used (small data and big data), data preparation for model optimization, and evaluation of predictive models. Participants will learn the basic concepts of the quantitative approach to forecasting, the importance of forecasting in decision making, and performance evaluation metrics. Statistical methods, such as univariate time series-based methods and regression, will be used to make accurate predictions based on time series.
Participants will learn how to use forecasting to support strategic and operational planning. In addition, practical use cases in machine learning will be presented concerning attrition/churn control to identify the probability of customers ceasing to use services or products, Next Best Action models to predict the most effective action for each customer, anomaly detection to identify anomalous data patterns and prevent fraud or failure, and sales data forecasting to apply business forecasting models in different industries. These use cases will illustrate the practical application of the techniques learned in various areas.
