Predictive Analytics World London (30 November to 1 December) is pleased to announce the return of the hugely popular post-conference workshop, "The Best and the Worst of Predictive Analytics" by Dr John Elder. This optional, one-day addition to the conference is taking place on 2 December and is only available to a maximum of 20 attendees. After selling out last year at the inaugural Predictive Analytics World London, it is strongly advised to book early to avoid disappointment.

Workshop:

The best and the worst of Preditive Analytics


Instructor:
John Elder Ph.D.
CEO & Founder,
Elder Research

Accepting that predictive analytics has already proven capable of enormous ROI across industries, Dr Elder takes a look into some of the tough questions that need addressing such as which core method for predictive modelling should be used and what best practices there are to guide you on your way. By describing the key inner workings of leading algorithms and demonstrating their performance through real-life business case studies, the workshop will help you to decide on which method and which tool is best suited to each predictive analytics project.
