Description

"Level Up” for Beginners who are interested in Big Data and Machine Learning (using Python).

This Step-by-Step Course is intended to be an initiation to learn #BigData and #MachineLearning with #Python programming for absolute beginners that have no background in programming.


In this course, we will step by step, using the example of real data, we will go through the main processes related to the topic "Big data and machine learning". 
Since the material turned out to be voluminous, I divided the course into five parts.


⇉ The Second part is devoted to the collection and extraction of data from scanned documents and Images. In this course, you will learn how to extract data from From Scanned Documents And Images, invoices, receipts, contracts and any other documents in PDF format or in Image format.

⇉ We will work on real data. We will have two sets of data consisting of PDF files that we will transform to the text and to tabular form. We will visualize the received data on the Kaggle platform using python libraries, which will help us to depict our received data in a graphical format.

⇉ During the training process, we will install Python and such libraries as Pandas, seaborn, matplotlib and others. We will upload the received data to the Kaggle platform and here using the “Jupiter Notebook” we will visualize our data and at the end, we will upload our data to the GitHub platform.
