The workshop will consist of brief presentations followed by live demonstrations and hands-on exercises focusing on applied problems from medicine, education and business. The presented code and exercises will draw mostly on the excellent caret R package.

This workshop will be adapted from our typical 2-day course on ML with R. Feel free to explore our open materials on The R Bootcamp website, and specifically our previous R Bootcamp program.
