Evaluate & Swap Models in Java ML
Evaluate & Swap Models in Java ML is a practical course that teaches you how to measure, compare, and confidently replace machine learning models in Java applications. You’ll learn why high accuracy can still lead to failure in real-world systems, and how metrics like precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC-ROC reveal the real impact of model decisions, especially with imbalanced datasets. Through hands-on benchmarking in Weka or Smile, you’ll compare multiple algorithms—Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, SVMs—and analyze trade-offs based on business consequences, not just leaderboard results. You will also redesign your ML architecture for flexibility, applying interface-driven development and the Strategy Pattern to make models swappable without touching the rest of the system. Finally, you’ll implement model lifecycle safeguards including versioning, re-evaluation triggers, and safe rollback paths so deployed models remain reliable as data evolves. This course is designed for learners with basic Java skills who want to confidently evaluate, compare, and upgrade machine-learning models in real-world applications. Learners should be familiar with basic Java programming skills and a general understanding of machine learning concepts and datasets. By the end, you’ll know how to select the right model for the job today—and upgrade it rapidly when tomorrow’s needs change.

In this course, we will begin our review of key asset categories underlying the Balance Sheet concepts that were introduced in the previous course. We will begin our trek down the Balance Sheet by reviewing cash and receivables, which are normally the two assets listed first. We will continue our trek down the Balance Sheet by looking at inventory and long-lived assets, which are normally two of the largest asset values. We will review the measurement and reporting issues involving Inventories and the corresponding cost of goods sold expense in the Income Statement. In the latter half of this course we will conclude our review of key asset categories by looking at both tangible and intangible long-lived assets that are so vital to the production of goods and services. This will entail discussion of both acquisition and disposition of property, plant and equipment as well as cost allocation. Next, we will discuss possible impairment of these assets as well as the proper treatment of expenditures made after acquisition.

Il fournit aussi des connaissances de base en analyse financière. Il est surtout utile pour qui veut se lancer dans l'investissement immobilier, le montage d'opérations immobilières, l'analyse de faisabilité économique de projets de construction, etc. Il peut même vous aider à préparer l'achat d'une maison ou d'un appartement pour votre propre usage! Le cours "Economie du sol et de l'immobilier" en deux parties vous permettra de comprendre (1) les calculs des acteurs des marchés foncier et immobilier (propriétaires fonciers, investisseurs immobiliers, etc.) (2) comment se forment les prix sur ces marchés, en lien avec le marché du logement et les politiques publiques La première partie introduit les principales méthodes de calcul des valeurs foncières et immobilières. Le cours est illustré d'exemples et de statistiques principalement suisses. Dans ce premier cours (Economie du sol et de l'immobilier I), nous aborderons: • Les calculs d'arbitrage et les déterminants et composantes du taux de rendement • La détermination du consentement à payer des acheteurs • La concurrence entre acheteurs • Le point de vue du propriétaire foncier • Les méthodes de calcul des valeurs immobilières Il est vivement recommandé d'effectuer les deux parties du cours dans l'ordre, puisque la deuxième utilise les concepts développés dans la première. Les deux parties sont de difficulté comparable. Chaque partie est structurée en modules hebdomadaires. Chaque module compte 5 ou 6 vidéos expliquant un thème. Chaque vidéo est suivie d'un quiz permettant de vérifier les concepts de la vidéo. Ces quiz demandent des calculs algébriques et numériques qui peuvent facilement être réalisés avec une calculatrice, mieux encore avec un tableur. Un formulaire est proposé en entrée du cours pour rappeler les opérations mathématiques utilisées dans le cours. Il s'agit principalement de manipuler des équations pour en extraire le terme recherché. A la fin de chaque module, il y a un quiz d'évaluation, qui doit être réussi avant de passer au module suivant. Ce quiz est fait de petits problèmes semblables à ceux qui ont été résolus dans les quiz d'exercice.
